Seven Deadly Sins
Sin no.1: Pride
Pride is the mother of all sins
In arrogant heart she always wins
With head held high she looks down on
Upon those who are not ones of her own
She hurts the most her loyal peers
With gaze of hatred ignores their tears
Conceited children of the new world
Are firmly grasped in merciless hold
Lies and deceit, part of my life
Shame on my head for being proud
I don't need help, won't share burdens
That is my pride and my offense
Prideful heart hurts itself, that is known fact
Sometimes, though, pride is the only thing left
