Should one want glory more than honour
Should one want victory over pride
Shouldn't self worth be more important
Than the acclaim that many thrive
I find my fellow man to be
Obsessed with beauty and victory
Controlled by greed and want of fame
The constant need to hear their name
You can have your glory
And your fame
I'll take my pride
If its just the same
And you can have the millions
Knowing your name
I'll keep my modesty
As it comes with no shame
