Pride is something
I'm aware i should lose
Often times
it only leaves me even more than confused
In the end,
it only makes me even more of a fool
Pointing out others flaws
When my own needs to be subdued
Who on earth
am I to say that I'm better
Humility is hard to grasp
Wielding this prideful gesture
Again, I've never in my life
Met a perfect person
And race deserves no fucken place
Among ones tongue for certain
It's difficult to not make this
all about "I"
A selfish trait
Tainting my own soul with lies
Because it's never about self
What a devilish tool
When we're willing to shoot first
And ask questions later, true?
Yes, we all are too full of ourselves to admit it
Because the truth hurts
And no one wants the truth
To make a red carpet entrance
But we'll hide behind the pride
And look down on our brothers
Pick and choose who deserves what
Never uplifting each other
What a joke?
I'm ashamed to even say that I'm human
Boasting about my merits
Who do i think that I'm fooling
God send your convicting spirit
down upon me
Remove this evil intent
That I'm carelessly flaunting
You brought me out of the gutter, literally
Not metaphorically speaking
And completely
Disregarded your teachings
I can't rely on the excuse
That "Only God Can Judge Me"
What a foolish approach
It's like saying
I'm incapable to do my own correcting
Im thanking you entirely
For your abundant wisdom
Telling me to lose my pride
So i could listen
I've got some corrections to make
Within my own life
I've realized the wrongs I've done
Can't be made to seem right
What a way to deceive
The entire populace
So many embrace hatred
Life unscrupulous
