The Path
i lay my soul apon the ground my heart into the fire
the path i walk so profound my will without desire
i will not plague apon myself the burden of such greed
the pure existance of my wealth the very air i breathe
ill give before im taken my needs i will endure
my life alas forsaken for this world deserves a cure
i cannot change demeaner i tread this path alone
cast me as a dreamer for this road will take me home
if my weary feet should stumble and i fall that very day
then my life would be so humble as a light to lead the way
for any true one spirit with the strength to follow through
whos footsteps you will inherit so the next can follow you
