Feardom City

Fear is like a lost wallet

Once you clutch the ball of it in your hand
You see it there, full and clear, 
It dares you to lose it again, so you can seek to find it again


Fear is the victim.
I will concur the most I can when I reach into my pocket of dreams
I will pull out fear and use it 
Like currency 
To buy me more of this priceless life
And another round.

Fear is the odd fraction of the equation
Inhibiting you 2 be you 
Times 1 to be oneself
I am fearless squared. 

I fear none with you on my side and detour the steel doors in my face
With grace I am here to be the methodology of my race

Move in search mode
Cruise the road of fear in my grey Cadillac 
Motion the thought: "I am here to experience it all!"
All the paths I have traveled, fear crossed and tracked my scent clear


Wallet of wisdom's riches
Savings in the bank for a rainy day
10%
Feel the drawer open and let my courage flutter out

Money can't buy me priceless life
Dollar days at Feardom City are here to stay.
