Talent is a gift that should be held tight,
Utilizing the skills in order to gain success.

Unfortunately, I have seen a man destroy his abilities,
Wasting a brilliant mind through wicked drugs.

I ran through the fires of hell to earn his intelligence,
Shedding tears and blood to earn the same glory,
And all his potential was given to him at birth.

He threw his expertise down the trash,
All for a vile pill that brings artificial happiness,
Eventually, that evil substance killed him in his sleep,
Never having the chance to shine on the land of opportunity.

Anger boiled through my veins due to a wonderful mind collapsing,
Now, I must grieve properly while securing my own future,
Fighting for the right path to happiness and prosperity.
