Prisoner of Pride
Breaking Chains of Ego: Unveiling the Depths of 'Prisoner of Pride'
Lyrics
There's a time to feel
There is a time for experiencing emotions.
And a time to fear
There is a time for feeling afraid.
Turn around and walk away from here
Turn around and leave this place.
There's no mystery
There's no hidden or puzzling situation.
No catch
There's no trap or trick.
If you will
If you don't take action, someone else will.
Paralyze your paradise
Stifle your own happiness or someone else will do it for you.
Or the next man will
Take control of your life before someone else does.
Where's your superstition now
Questioning the faith or beliefs in difficult times.
All you true believers
Asking believers where their convictions are now.
Where's your so called sacred cow
Questioning the value of things considered sacred.
Where is it now
Challenging the existence or relevance of the sacred.
One small victory
A small achievement leads to the withdrawal of forces.
And your soldiers all go home
A minor success causes soldiers to return home.
It takes more than that
More than a small victory is needed to make significant changes.
To trade your pieces for a whole
It takes substantial effort to transform fragments into a whole.
Circumstances force your hand
External factors compel action.
So you say
Justifying actions based on external circumstances.
Satisfy yourself
Seek personal satisfaction despite circumstances.
You'll live to die another day
Survive today to face challenges another day.
Sell your only saving grace
Abandon your only source of salvation for personal gain.
You grand achiever
Those who aim high may experience deep disappointment.
Nothing hurts like second place
The pain of being second is intense.
I see it now
A realization of the pain and disappointment.
Your prisoner of pride
Trapped by one's own pride and ego.
Come on feel the rain
Embrace the challenges and difficulties.
Come taste another kind of freedom
Experience a different form of freedom through adversity.
Your prisoner of pride
Being confined by pride, concealing the inner pain.
You conceal the pain
Hide the suffering caused by pride.
Come see the other side of freedom
Explore the alternative aspect of freedom.
