Our Ego Does Grow

For It Can Blind Us

Our Ego Does Grow

With each step we take, our ego does grow

A towering giant, our ambition does show

We crave the spotlight, the praise and the fame

Our ego's fire, our drive, our heart's flame

But beware, dear one, the dangers of pride

For it can blind us, and our fall will be wide

The ego's rise, a double-edged sword

It can lift us high, but also absorb.
