Lead and Let Light Guide
February 14, 2013
To make it in this world,
You must conquer,
You must be brave
Is that true?
Can you even gain power
In this world of supremacy?
Or are we forever where
We’re at from the beginning?
Is there such a thing as equality?
To show compassion
Is a sign of weakness,
Put to death immediately
Show some teeth
Show some arm
Let them know
You mean harm
Have courage here
And now, make up your mind
Are you here to help or hurt?
Let the light shine through
From you to the dark,
Shine into the eyes of the enemy
Radiate in all directions,
Glow from every pore,
Reveal the path of truth
To make it in this world,
You must conquer, yourself,
You must be brave
