I never want to be the wall-eyed lion
that plucks at the roots of Zion,
that tears down the good
and builds the rebellion.

I never want to be the one that holds others back
just to fulfill my own desires,
placing others under my feet
and pretending to be proud.

I never want to be the one sitting in a corner
with no hope, no dreams, no accomplishment,
no going forward for the good
of all mankind.

I never want to be in the crooks and crannies
where life has no meaning,
no shape, no form,
with just pure existence.

I want to be part of the team,
where my strengths builds your weaknesses,
and your strengths build my weaknesses,
bringing the greater good
to the rest of the world!
