Yes,

someone has to do it,

because the world,

it can't go on like this.

Day in and day out,

the same news on permanent repeat.

There are worthless people all around us.

The world would be better off,

if they were dead.

That's right,

the world is rotting

and those who are making it rot

deserve to die.

I'll do it.

Using the death note,

I'll change the world.

Eliminate all evildoers

who deserve punishment.

I'm going to clean up the world

one name at a time.

People who have committed serious crimes

will die of heart attacks.

Soon,

even an idiot will notice

that someone's killing criminals.

I want the world to know of my existence,

that my power is erasing evil,

that I'm the one doing out justice.

Then,

and only then,

the world will start moving

in the right direction.

A new world,

free of injustice

and populated by people

who I've judged to be

honest, kind and hard-working.

And I—

I will become the God of this new world.
