I have seen your other face, the one that shies away

I have seen the great disgrace you hide from light of day

I have seen a second side I didn’t want to see

And now, my friend, you must decide, which one you choose to be

.​.​.

There is one who lives a life with honor and with pride

There is one who faces strife and takes it all in stride

There is one who’s wise and strong, who walks with sacred light

My friend who knew the right from wrong and always chose the right

.​.​.

Then you showed another you and I began to think

Then you showed what you could do when you consume The Drink

Then you showed how you could sin when nothing holds you back

My friend, the white of yang within was swallowed by yin’s black

.​.​.

My dear friend, I say this now with neither hate nor blame

My dear friend, I know somehow you can remove your shame

My dear friend, you know that I will never count the cost

For you, my friend, have done the same for me when I was lost.
