Credence

The world is filled with trickery, be careful where you tread. All around is treachery, so keep a level head. Hold fast to the path you follow, head held high and don't look back. At times, the way is hid in shadow, keep on walking down the tracks. Wisdom is the grace of years, learn your lessons well. Leave behind your childhood fears, for only time will ever tell. Be at peace among your neighbors, don't shoulder all the blame. Don't ask of anyone for favors, and do not be ashamed. No doubt, the world is as it should be, unfolding in its only way. Maybe not what you thought it would be, life's a game we all must play. Surrender up those things of youth that only cause you pain. Suffer no more self-abuse, step back from the flame. Don't fight your battles empty handed, arm yourself with knowledge. The years pass, granting understanding, step back from that ledge. Give respect where it is due, earn some for yourself. Cherish love, if it is true, for there's no greater wealth.
