Drink — it ends before too long,
Leaves behind no lasting song.
So stay strong—though hard, stay clever,
Work and dare to live forever.
Fight this Filth—expect resistance,
Threats and hurdles in persistence.
Tears won’t help, nor cries of pain—
Only cunning wins the game,
Cold precision, shrewd devotion,
If you’d dodge the fool’s erosion.
Greed and weakness, fear in fashion,
Pride that mired in "stylish" passion.
Faith in folly, evil’s reign—
Such is foolish world’s refrain.
Gangrene takes your leg—no healing.
Betrayal kills your soul, unfeeling.
Bow to lies—you’re lost, forsaken,
Walk with traitors—Hell’s your haven.

Cracked SOLES extorted
because third worlds must cry
YOURS are rubberized
In the zoo, where snakes are crawling,
Man has built a pyramid.
All is trapped in unseen walling,
Devils rule and keep it hid.

Mind and Honor—scarcely counted,
Men are beasts, brought down so low.
Lies are spewed, the world is founded
On deception. That’s the show.
