I don't know what to tell you,
But if everything I touch turns to gold
It loses its value
...
Not from the excess of gold
That I choose to not hold
...
Just that in life as we live it
There's value intrinsic
...
So, I try not to make things worse
Leave things as they are
The King Midas Curse
Is a blessing in disguise
Cause it's a blessing to despise
Later on most people learn to revise
As they find the real prize
And see with clear eyes
Not colored or tinted with roses or green
The value in life, and what it can bring
...
So yeah, golden bars
From a silver tongue
I should make use of this gift while I'm young
...
I only have one life
Chances, to make them
Many goals with a purpose
To fulfill my soul
And find greatness
Bricks I lay for my future
As I make this
Beginning of a empire that's coming forth to suture
Who I wish to be with who I can be
If the only thing permanent is change
Then I am the same
Yet, as I, you, and us transcend time with our skills
Fulfilling the bill past 10000 hours
I will continue to grow and make use of my powers
...
I'm thankful to be blessed
As I continue the race, but nobody alive
Can ever truly outpace
Death
So I have to make sure
That I search for a cure
To try to live a life that's fulfilled
I don't know about you or anybody else, but in accepting that death can strike at any time, I've already written some form of my will
