Lessons I've learned
        Keep a watch, upon thy tongue
          let not, the venom flow.
          For it seeps into the hearts of men;
          and like a cancer grows.
        It warps the mind, sours the gut,
          the spirit lies in wait.
          And when it strikes its fatal blow,
          my friend it is too late.
      Be careful then, guard your tongue
          apply wisdom when you speak.
          For you know not the hearts of men
          or the evil you  may reap.
