Wisdom On a Canvas
Wisdom on a canvas, expression of immortality
So simple but precious, maker of destiny
It is not for the prejudiced, not for bigots certainly
It is for the open-minded to treasure them freely
For bountiful wisdom flood the earth and the sea
Some have price, merchandise, but many are for free
It's just up for the feasting eye if it wants them willingly
Many judge by the cover and refuse them readily
For to many it's intrigue that decides the quality
For it's easier to just listen than to search for reality
But those who believe harness its full bounty
For its worth is entwined in the lines of secrecy
For many men are fooled believing absurdity
For glitter can close their eyes and pretend it's reality
No one dares much to unsnare the twists of history
Some prefer to just judge than to dig their destiny
