don't forget your root


Don't forget your root
Once you were nobody
Once you weren't rich
You were the ordinary person
Walking on the street
Visiting the hawkers' stalls
Playing on the field
The every day life
The ordinary persons do

When power comes into you
You can feel the top of the world
With it you have a responsibility
Use it wisely as the old use to say
Once you forget your root
You will sell your soul
To the dark lord who will trade you in
Giving you the heady spell of power
Until you forget where you came
The sins of power will corrupt your mind
You think you are powerful but it is only a while
Once you have served your purpose
The dark lord will cut you away
You will float aimlessly
You will cry for your sins

So it is with wealth creations
Don't be arrogant don't be snobbish
You will not last long in generation
You will be curse and spit upon
Of course it is always behind your back
The ringing bell of your arrogance
When you forget where you came
