Yield to Success
People want to succeed,
but some are afraid.
Afraid of the person,
they'll be one day.
Where power defines them,
and their views are blurred.
where their control is endless,
while their heart is disturbed.
where greed becomes second nature,
and integrity is lost.
where money makes the decisions
regardless of the cost.
Fear of success,
is nothing new.
fear of success,
is humanity's glue.
It makes us humble,
and keeps us grounded.
so when we get there,
we're not dumbfounded.
For with clear eyes,
and an open mind.
Our success,
can never be refined.
So don't be afraid,
just be aware.
That success is something,
to be handled with care.
