Shall I fill my heart with reminders of life's transience, and despair as they decay? Or feign contentment as I reach for more and slowly rot away?
Empty philosophies give birth to empty lives
Lacking all sincerity we've paid the highest price
I want something more
Shameful proclivities expose my humanity
But in the end I provide my own authority
Controlled not by propensities
I reject these shallow tendencies
I will not breathe the toxic air of influence
and subject myself to insidious corrosion
With persistence I will seek the truth
And be not hindered by damaged youth
