Check the faith in you not him
Check the distance on your thoughts before that pen try's to walk
Check your perfections for flaws
Check your high for stars 
Give to the crowd but don't take the applause 
Check where they don't look 
Check what your "supposed to do"
Live like the gods do 
Let  them
Check you 
 Fail or succeed 
Your love should not lie in your heart 
Your love should walk with the world 
Check your role in life
Are you truly playing your part
