The Key

Strive for goodness 
Clears the way of higher knowledge 
While the insider devil blocks 
And brings ego, lust and greed 
The union of these demonic three 
Spoiled and impure 
Indulge in self destruction 
By locking the doors 
Of the house where soul lives 
And declare that this world is meaningless 
So that they can justify
To go after to satiate their sordid desires 
By doing all heinous deeds 
But the key to defeat them 
Lies in dispelling the darkness of ignorance 
By bringing in the light of awareness 
And having knowledge that the house 
We own made up with some dad and some good bricks
