I never knew what brought me here
Is it your will God? to prosper?
Or to teach me? what is the game of life!
different places, different faces
Full of wars, a battle to fight
Masquerade ball, world changes
Sacrifices, Struggles, two phases
What am I to believe? Please, open my eyes!
Give me insight, so i’ll become wise

Fear of nothing, fear of losing?
Hide me in the shadow of your wings
For the moment without you near
Sometimes, I want to surrender
Where will I be? for you’re not my treasure
Hosanna, oh! Lord! take away my fear
I looked upon you, to all the things I see
Death is near! but it’s not the end of me!
I’m trading my sorrow, for Peace, Joy and Happiness

How to become selfish? if your heart say’s “no”!
What’s in the title? if you’re not happy
How far is the longingness? thou you’re near to success
It is Sad, for you have a vision
But you’ve been blinded to see things around you
What is so wrong for being Honest?
I know straight trees will be cut first
I’m not an angel devil’s in disguise
But tell me, Do I need to change my heart?

I don’t like a Diamond, a pot of Silver and Gold
I don’t need much money, a Power or a Fame
I just want to live simply, and make the most of everything!
I Read, I Write; then Think!
Go! Run! for the freedom you want
Embrace! fight! for your right to live
Now, I feel and understand
To live is to learn, and to laugh
with a game of life!
