Don'T

Don't be fooled, when words are pooled beneath your weary walls.
Don't be taught to bend your back at every beckon call.
Don't do this, and don't do that, I tell you cause I care!
I care to talk and have you listen, do you think it's fair?

It's fair it's fair. I want to listen. Tell me more and more.
Feed me words and feed me wisdom. Teach me all you can.
Show me worlds I have not seen and show me mine compared.
Prove and show me that its better and I'll grant you I am there.
