The True Artist Never Dies
The true artist never dies,
Rather lives on in the many hearts/
A wise soldier will always learn,
That living by sight will cause one to burn,
A memory can be tainted by a battery of lies !
Oft, we hear a word spoken in the darness,
With the inner pain that can be released in the light;
Never give up the fight !
Within pain that can turn many heads away/
Choose to bow the knee to pray/
Don't ever assume that everything is all right,
By painting the town both by living by sight !
Be captivated by who you are,
This true source of truth,
One will never learn at the local bar/
Oft' we get tired and a bit perplexed ?
This challenge to be free is a question of time !
Like a leaning tower,
We are so afraid to reveal are true selves/
By hiding behind the four walls,
With heavy bars made out of steel/
Don't ever give up on what is real !
Sheltered from the outside cold/
It is true that the true artist never dies/
Rather to live on in the many hearts of their adoring fans !
We will live to cherish every moment and lasting memory !
Until a las we will reach heaven's door !
