Three Roles

Over stand these R the 3 characters we play U can become aware begin changing & Evolving 2day What will happen 2 U the sheep if U become aware Will U awaken from slumber R will U freeze right there in fear Which would U primarily become If U R willing 2 evolve What will happen 2 the present balance that exists It is not Ur theory 2 solve No 1 knows while tomorrow is becoming 2day Nothing will stop it as it continues on its way This is a warning 2 the herdsman & the wolf & a wakeup call 2 the sheep Stop counting with the rest of the flock & awaken before U’re consumed 4 Ur meat Consuming U Sheep 2 sustain others is a must But 4 U Sheep it is Bleak While 4 a wolf it is a thrilling nourishing rush There R sheep herdsmen & wolves All of whom have a part to play Sheep R often scared when frightened frozen like an ice statue they stay They R all devoured consumed & appreciated the herdsman wants 2 protect the flock from other herdsmen & wolves sheep R for warmth & breeding & making tasty foods Nothing is evil here This is the cycle by design Wolves like herdsmen know the cycle & consume at opportune times The wolves & herdsmen survive because they shape shift in & out of character role Exploiting what they know 4 a constant change 2 their advantage 2 unfold Sheep R simply live stock a basic commodity these R the 3 roles learn them adapt & evolve when ready In this life there is a planet of sheep Only mountains of herdsmen & yet oceans of wolves lurking in packs who usually R alone when they attack Shape shifting Morphing roles evolving means becoming aware When the truth is exposed 2 U It is never clear What R if transformation will take place A herdsman is wiser & calmer But herdsmen kill each other 2 Over physical property both territory & flock R revolving issues Wolves are wild & untamed with penetrating fangs Rogue & clinching 2 cloak in the foliage of rocks & vegetation the herdsman will destroy the wolf if presented that situation sometimes they shape shift and take part in a slaughterhouse calamity But they rarely morph into sheep unless studying another herdsman’s rambling Having your hair cut off is 1 thing But by design sheep R for consuming. All days for all living R numbered still the sheep R docile followers who slumber Choose 2 Evolve & shape shift 4 Ur advance Know the 3 characters we all play Before Ur end while U still have a chance 2 become AWARE Enlightened & finally awakened 2 the 3 roles

I too agree. Unfortunately the original version was said to be too many characters and thus was re-animated in the version you see to fit. Sorry about that. Feel free to preview the montage on youtube. google "3Roles by Paradox"
