Putting on Facades

How far would you go

for goal attainment

will you remain

nameless

infamously

famous

put someone

on your aim list

or would you rather

wander hopelessly

aimless

would you use someone

for your journey

that’s what’s so unhealthy

about needing

need is greed

if someone told you

that they needed you

would you

  1. Ask them why
  2. What for
  3. Allow them to use you

to get to what they need too

ahead of you

beware of those who

  1. Lean on you
  2. Glean from you
  3. Pose in pictures with you

translation

those who know you

hold on to you to

set you up to fall

for their rise

Selfish greed is in their eyes

Those who despise you

Hide behind a disguise

  1. You fall they rise
  2. You fall they rise
  3. You fall they rise

To see just open your eyes
