Greed is what drives me
I want everything I see
Lust is what pulls me
Desire brings me to my knees
Pride is what holds me
Stops me from letting go
Envy is what binds me
Keeps me wrapped up in my soul
Wrath is my strength
Enemies fear my name
Gluttony keeps me full
I feed off anguish and pain
Sloth keeps me grounded
Feet dragged across the earth
And these sins have been with me since the day of my birth
See what I'm trying to say is that I'm not a virtuous man
I have given myself over to a darker set of hands
For my defining traits are the seven deadly sins
These are the traits that make up the true me within
But for a moment let us take a quick reprieve,
So you can see what things these sins truly do for me
Greed is my core
It makes me push harder to gain more
Lust is my honor
As I only desire what your body has to offer
Pride is my mind
For it strives to be the best
Envy is my rock
Shows me everything is a test
Wrath is my weapon
To tear down all walls that hold me in the past
Gluttony is my curiosity
I devour all knowledge in my path
& sloth is the reminder, the one that truly sets me free
These deadly sins have become an important part of me
