Betrayal
Be careful who you trust
as the people you thought had your backs
are normally the first ones to stick in the knife
Hidden is their jealousy
Of you achievements
And accomplishments in life.
So be careful who you trust
For their actions are unjust,
It’s Only then you will see,
The burning hate that’s been inbedded within their eyes
Never can you forgive or forget
Their betrayal or their lies
For he who is deaf, blind and silent
Will live a thousand years in peace,
and he who is brave is free.
With every free peaceful breath
Thou shall have no fear
Walking through the valleys
Of the shadows of death
