"Having risen above his environment, he can forget it; or, he can rise above it and never forget it and keep compassion and understanding in his heart for those he has left behind him in the cruel upclimb."

Once my chains
Come undone
Once I cut the strings
Ordering me to
"Dance puppet, dance!"
There is no going back
My past will be just that...
The past... forgotten...
I choose to forget
"Every man for himself,"
That's the new trend right?
I'm not selfish
I'm just playing
A little game...
A game called life
It's imperative that I forget
Or I might just lose
This little game.
