The Lion King

I am a great lion King,

For those who think I am a fool, think  twice 

For those who  think they  can play me 

Being deceived by simplicity of life

I have a second thought 

For those  who take me for granted 

With the bliss of love I ravish around them

Rethink !

You're thinking of taking me for granted or a fool

 Because of my humble commitment and dedication to your progress 

Think and ponder before you cross the line 

I am a lion King 

Watching my preys as though I am a fool , 

Watching each of their steps and moves  closely 

As though I can't see them

Think deeply and count the cost 

For it will cost you greatly 

Once the lion King reacts and takes action,

When I react 

the jungle trembles

The land rises  up to greet me

The trees quiver and bow in fear

I am the great lion stop taking me for a fool 

I  can lavish you with love beyond measures

If you take me  as one who deserves to be loved,respected and valued

You can  take me for a fool and become my prey 

It is your choice not mine 

I urge you to choose wisely 

I am a lion King .
