The Feeling Inside
Egos feed off the things you achieve
Not bettering people as some do believe
It's a diet of what you can do and can be
Never bias comparison of ability
If you don't feed it you'll find jealousy
Bitterness reigns and feeds on envy
Literal pain breeds dominantly
Accomplishments prevent it being empty
If you don't get better or you don't learn more
you'll be upset and you'll be left sore
When you get up and go you'll feel the reward
The feeling inside the ego longs for
Your ego lives inside where it's always been
It finds food inside not from what you have seen
It feeds off of feelings not visual scenes
Don't live an illusion when you can chase dreams
