Take Away My Shame

Take away my shame They go for the award I go for the message They want to be popular I just want a legacy They are money hungry In disguise of motivators I fish them out and remark them With the songs of my soul No wonder they don't love my shadow They can always smell me from afar Like the dog they want to be I wonder why they cant learn I wonder why they keep on being Egoistic I wonder what value they think they Worth Just to be number one In a world of illusion Take away my shame And protect my path oh God Cos there are so many vultures Waiting in vain just to eat me up Off curse they got no power since Am alive They know who I am When I step up with my songs They can't stand the truth But can destroy it and replace Illusion to humanity They worship money And the rest of us Worth nothing if we got no names Am too busy living my life They are busy comparing my life I got no hate despite I know Not everyone I know loves me This is why I hid to the call Of nature cos always it Take away my shame A dedication
