Why Should I Pretend
why should I pretend
If is right I will surely show it
If is wrong I will surely rebuke it
I sure got a soul
Right deep down my heart
It so dwells
Why should I pretend
Life is beautiful
If only one understand
His soul first
For you can't gave what you don't have
Either can you understand
What you don't know
Why should I pretend
Why pretend when all is not right
Why lie when there is a truth
Why not be brave
It could had been better
Since now life is like a game
So all best to do is pretend
And follow all invoke
So now when you look into
The eyes of the people
You sure see fear
Why should I pretend
Coward are produce
Each day a lot now
Lack of self knowledge
Is like a dig of a diamond
So rare in places
I don't know how this is
This possible
Yet I know fear is our modern
Cancer
Why should I pretend
Real self power I adore
Self knowledge I worship
Self creativity I dream of
Self sacrifice I live for
So I am not a pretender
As on this quest I wonder
Why should I pretend
