The wealth of wisdom
Speaks history’s name
Knowledge comes at the price of pain
Illusion tells us it is worth what we have gained
No two are the same each has broke the mold
We ignite that which burns in the human soul
Embers remain as the cares of this life grow old
We must guard our hearts and our health truly this is our earthly wealth
The world speaks of pleasure and pain
There is a hidden cost for trivial things
So many things rise up only to weigh on your mind
Chasing what seems real you stay on the grind
Wearing a mask you move forward and leave Hope behind
Looking towards tomorrow you know the drill
Settling in this life can be a bitter pill
Learning life’s lessons as we fall along the way
Wealths true value is far more than the price we pay
Look towards the future the seeds,hopes and dreams are with them
For it says and a child shall lead them as proof that we need them
Obstacles and boundaries even mental health
Our greatest gift is this life true wealth
