Tryin' to write a story that everyone can relate
Risin' up to glory ready to face the hate
Unknown what to say that will captivate many
One day my words may resonate even with a penny
Really I just want to show that I can rise
Prove wrong and grow above enterprise
It's not about money but fame all the same
To me it'd be funny introduce the game of shame
To those who cut down crops before maturity
Turning everything brown and desecrating the purity
Of innocent minds looking around for proposition
Do not put in binds or barrage with opposition
Creating pain and resentment is not the goal
Harboring contentment rather soothes a soul
Though destructive is our detriment
Let not constructive fall into decadent
For then you'll fall to sins you claim to stand against
Enemy drops you to shins soon after hypocrisy commenced
