Backstabbing and Mudslinging

You were born, both innocent and naive, void of memories, your mind was a blank. And your parents taught you what to believe: for all that you are, you have them to thank. The fabric of time, you cannot unweave: nor spit out poisons, you already drank. You are the product of your upbringing: exposed to backstabbing and mudslinging.
