A CHANGED WORLD

 
Glory lies on bloodshed

Murder, abuse and rape

True honour comes from torturing

Those who cannot escape

 

Happiness lies in money

They call it purchasing power

Penny by penny you glow brighter

As your house becomes a tower

 

Wisdom comes in youth itself

What you want to do is wise

Elderly people are tiresome

Their preachings are out of vice

 

Love is when you give, and take

Affection comes wrapped in gold

The more you care, the more you give

It’s the golden rule of love untold

 

The world today is changed, son

Each one knows his own way

Follow my advice and you’ll succeed

And be a better man than you are today

 

I was once like you, too, my child

I stood up vehemently for what is right

But the scars on my soul cannot be healed still

So I’m telling you to surrender now without a fight

 

Success is rising up to the skies

It doesn’t matter who you were before

It’s the victory that matters, not the journey

So take the leap, my son, and you’ll soar…
