Pride's Folly
By Silence
Who do you think you're talking to
When you look to her and him
Eyes wander to this and that
Who do you think hears your word
When the target your screaming at
Isnt the one who the message is ment
Who do you think your better than
When you can terrorize and degrade anyone you want
You're are nothing
Because you are so smart you use it to mask the cowardice
When courage takes the stage good women and men
Do not ignore it
For all your fancy words and praises of yourself
They are nothing compared to one couragious act
Humility, the ability to say you were wrong and ask forgiveness
