A Stranger

A stranger named truth came to my door

Telling me things I hadn't heard before

Beware of lies that lie ahead

The world is fooled, has been misled

The truth is power that makes you laugh

The truth is the stranger on a lonely path

Don't be fooled by all the lies

Wash your face, open your eyes

A lie conceals, the truth reveals

The truth can hurt, the truth can heal

The lies will trick you like a fool trying to believe

When the stranger comes by you'll be glad it leaves

Playing with Love

We play to love and love to play
We avoid the sadness and try to be gay

You can save your love till your love is spent
You can forget your love wherever you went

Love for self but not too much
Love is useless if it doesn't touch

My love for you: it has to show
My love can stay or it can go

The love is yours and mine without mistakes
The love you give is the love you make

We avoid the sadness and try to be gay
We play to love and love to play

Ego Tripper

The ego talks and people hear

The ego talks without any fear

Walks in the room while people stare

It's all alone without a spare

Walks in the room while people stop

It's all about me and what I got

Ego tripping all over the world

Ego tripping on any girl

Walks the talk and plays the game

It's Ego trip is always vain

Ego gets hurt by egos pride

Ego knows why ego lied

Walks in the room while people stare

It's all alone without a spare

The egos game is not to blame

The egos trip is always vain
