I have walked amongst kings,
and brought their downfall.
I have dined with great poets,
and helped build the great wall.

You'd think with a resume,
so colourful and long,
I'd have learned a few truths
to teach to the young.

So why won't they understand?
The voice of reason no one will hear,
Survival is the name of the game.
The prizes of the gathering be damned!

Honour and chivalry are ideas of old,
The have no place in this, the new age.
To change with the times, the way to survive,
You live, you grow strong, you fight another day.
