which side will you let win
Anger, hate, and Defile
All works of the human infantile.
Hope, Love, and worldly peace
Each one just out of reach.
For the human mind is a madding thing
Needing power and earthly gain.
But the unearthly soul seeks heaven’s gates
For the souls of men are not the souls of saints.
An endless war continues between the two
And human flesh is made the blooded due.
The victor of the struggle is given eternal peace
While the torment for the vanquished shall never cease.
Each earthly mortal pays this price
Each earth mortal must roll his dice.
For the prize is that of immortality
But which side in you holds that key?
