Inside out Athena's world


Surrounded by sorrow outreach where they preach but don't teach the youth. The truth lies hidden on the inside But there you'll find that many are blinded and deceived by their own "I" Carelessly proceeding and believing that they're no good But What's good? Is it the absence of bad? Who are we? infinite space floating around just with a body and a head? No ..we're more than that Souls treading lost trails trying to find a way back to the place Where understanding and clarity prevails Life is not a jail if you're holding the keys Pleading for the blood To enhance your deeds your greed will make you feed off your needs Stuck in the ordinary conjunction of certainty and control We boast our roles then hit others with stones Shedding the lies of pride To hide the darkness which is inside Scare to face the prism of life I am Athena goddess of wisdom and the daughter of the upright.
