Don'T Be Fooled

Don’t be fooled (practicing lyrics for the keyboard) Don’t be fooled by those Who pretend something is new. Don’t be fooled by the world Going faster than you. Don’t be fooled by the words From the tongue of a snake. Remember who you are. Your life is what you make. Don’t be fooled Don’t be fooled Falling in endless pools of sorrow Today is what matters Be blessed with tomorrow. Only a fool will wear a mask, Live by lies, playing the game. Never truth for one who asks. Time for quitting, foolish game of blame. Don’t be fooled by a stranger Or anyone in disguise. Don’t be fooled by what you think you want You may already have, learn to be wise. Don’t be fooled. Don’t be fooled. Falling in endless pools of sorrow. Today is what matters. Be blessed with tomorrow. The day will come, you will look back. At the twisted turns and choices made. Whether a gentle journey or race track Or with regret for what fear stole, afraid. The wise will be smiling forever At the glittering presents of memories. The fool will be crying so silently Tears in a puddle, blind reflections, bare trees. Heidi Sands
