How Could I Ascend

Anger and hatred begin to breed
Finding myself in a world of greed
Strong natured filled with pride
Finding it hard to spill what's inside
Chasing my eternal home
While when in Rome
Seeing all that's corrupt
How could I hope to move up
Give up on myself downward I descend
Only when I'm could I hope to ascend
