The Road

Human Beings, Homo-sapiens; call it whatever you want
I'm not interested in that exterior
It's the Socrates soul that we never take for grant
They're a fool who looks for beauty in the mirror
Controlled by the sins, pride of vain and prejudice stemming from fear
and not even the social mirror; take a leap of faith, look deep inside you and you'll see
what you were always meant to be!

You may have to crawl through the road with all your might
Never forget that at the end of the tunnel there always is light
Along the journey, for you, there might be none
But always remember that the victor walks alone
and don't fret over the thrown pebbles, scorching sun or their attempts at your defile
You will be thankful for everything when you look back the road with nothing but a smile!! :)
