How To Be A Better Man
I take a step back and try to be a better man
Never gonna be a clone of another man
Look before I leap and stay true to myself
So I dont become a slave to the wealth

Deviation from the path may lead to rack and ruin
Maybe not of the financial kind
But a breakdown of the soul the body or the mind
I formulate a contingency plan

Who knows it might turn out better

There may be trouble ahead
But I can make it through
There may be trouble ahead

Drawing my conclusion from the first till the last

Hoping that my wisdom will take care of the rest
I work methodically at a steady pace
Safe in the knowledge that the tortoise is the one who wins the race
I practice what I preach and I preach what I know
Reaping the rewards of all the seeds that I sow
