L . I . F . E (Live Indelibly For Eternity)
Life a guessing game
To the game player,
Mischief to the hater,
Foreknown script
To the game changer,
A bed filled with roses
Enumerated by the silver-spooned
But dark, bleak and horrible
To the beaten and battered
Because you fall down the ugly life tree
Hitting every ugly branch on your way down,
And so to the naïve
It is a puzzled piece.
Live your life to chance
And you stand no chance
Nothing is more valuable
Than insight in life's voyage,
Our canvases are congested,
From our childhood innocence
With painting and hating,
Broken hedges and images,
With letters and fetters,
With stains and pains;
Life's a make-up store, go to your section.
If I were two-faced
Would I be wearing this one?
No hard feelings on a hard face,
Life is hard enough
But we are tough enough,
Zeal not cast off,
Our conscience we will sell not.
No matter your account,
Your Porsche and mansion,
Your fame and royal name
Our grave is still the same,
In the same hole lay our body tamed
But caged the spirit of the crushed soul
Irrespective of the life you use to know
Eons of unrelenting pain
Yet a cold cool comforting
For the eternal living dead,
Drinking from the cup we deserve,
Our life's in preserve,
This right He reserve
By the One we serve.
