Voice of Truth

I am the voice
Crying at night
In the means of your choice
Here i am tonight to direct aright

I am the one on the streets
Walking in the sun
Not under trees but in the streets
Lingering in stun

I am the slave
A prisoner in the mind
The brave even in the grave
The bitter rind

I am an enemy  
But shall save many from agony
