A Man Of Pride

A man of wisdom said:
«The world is Hell personified».
We paint our planet red
In the war of shade and light.

A man of honour said:
«I swear to revere and defend the law».
Someone shot him in the head
When he declared his holy war.

A man of pride
His word is a pack of lies.
Don`t trust your guide
He is the master of disguise.

A man of warfare said:
«I`m always ready to die for peace».
When soldiers found him, he was dead
Maimed body lay among the trees.

A man of genius said:
«I am the Prophet of lost generation».
This child of shame ran mad
He strayed in the maize of hallucination.

A man of pride
His word is a pack of lies.
Don`t trust your guide
He is the master of disguise.

A man of justice said:
«I am the Voice of all the weak».
When he died in his bed
Someone named him The Great Freak.

A man of power said:
«I`m proud to be a part of my nation».
This nation worshiped Captain Red
Who led fast train to Endsville station.

A man of pride
His word is a pack of lies.
Don`t trust your guide
He is the master of disguise.
