The Courage To Sing

Oh, the presence of darkness and ruthfulness
it prevents me from singing truthfulness

In all times of chaotic wrong,
I shall sing a truthful song

To inform all about every lie,
so people can begin to fly

Even if many people condemn me,
the truth will help me miraculously flee

Back to my home in the clouds,
isolated from the deceitful crowds
