I heard an honest man lie
A disguise to hide and mask
When did respect die
Truth found at the end of a flask
Sober stories wrapped up
Plastic hearts breathe fake love
Dependent on culture to make it
Fame fortune murder
Haikus of distorted pleasure
What happened to respect
Oh it floated away with the dead
I heard the honest cheat
A demise to hide and seek
Predators absorbed in self image
Preying on innocence
Cheating out the humble
Extorting all retreat
letters to an empty beat
