A person who's story was already written before he was born
Never asked thrusted into
It's what the child is faced to do
Entrusted with everything understanding all
Knowing of the rise and of the fall
Being told to put all on hold even when getting old
Knowing of all the answers
Solutions creating more enemies
Night skies are seen in awe, bringing back a flow of good memories
Returning home will not be an easy task
Always realizing never having to ask
Fronds are the carpet on which covers the dirt
Path is long and narrow leading up to a day of sorrow
Betrayal will be on a massive scale
Signs of the end and becoming very frail
Physical attributes of a man
With a past that had a long life span
Suffering many mental anguishes
Staying strong in his father’s wishes
Staked up and propped up for all to see
A final sacrifice made for you and me
Followers weeping at your feet
Hoping and wishing for his place in the seat
A final mortal stab comes with anguish and sadness
Afterlife of suffering has begun
Hoping and wishing to again see the Sun
Dealing with lies and betrayal on a one on one bases
Cringing on all that is offered
Knowing it is not theirs to give
All goes black
He believes he's going back
Seeing his Father if only for a moment
Opening his eyes, moving the stone
Finally the warm Sun is upon his ghostly body
