You see the journey,
Down fortune and fame,
You see the life,
We all want to claim.
It's right there,
In front of our eyes,
Trying to tempt us,
With it's deceptions and lies.
Something so simple,
Like having it all,
The money, the fame, the noise,
Might just be the devil's call.
Fame is a dark cloud,
That covers one's soul,
However, there is no running from it,
There is no running at all.
The secret we are missing,
Is that fame does not bring love,
It is not a peacemaker,
It is no white dove.
