L.I.E. (Loyalty Is Everything)
Loyalty is everything & the only thing that matters
Anything less than that is just unnecessary chatter
Rather have one's loyalty than claims of loving me
History's shown the love word is used too loosely
It's a deceivingly clever way of putting blinders on
While secretly having plans of Children of The Corn
Spewing scorning words to the herds that'll follow
Those consuming it, chewing it up & then swallow
Making my heart hollow to the point of no return
There's lessons in blessings is what I've discerned
I've earned my Soldier stripes & poetry's my vice
Telling my story openly & freely giving my advice
Like I.C.E. I'm deporting all foreign to my progress
Seeking out healthy ways of minimizing my stress
I confess that it hasn't been the easiest thing to do
But until I die, to mine ownself I must remain true
