Lord forgive me for my sins...

Sparing no sympathy

As matter of fact I'm your enemy

Craving weakness and vulnerability

Taking without giving is what my father taught me

I've had this ideology since the age of 3

Selfish actions that caused hearts to ache and bleed

Listening only to what voices told me

"Lying will accomplish what you aim to achieve"

Don't be fooled when I fill you with glee

Because I'm something more than what you see

Chasing desires and temptations carelessly 

Sacrificing everything when I abandon loyalty

Presenting a sinister grin while waiting patiently

My false claims will fool into thinking this is meant to be

I take more than I give to charity

I was blind, but now I'm seeing in clarity

My name translates

To "one who never appreciates"

As a matter of fact I've forgotten your name

Because after I achieved my goal nothing was the same

Lord forgive me for my sins

For I am no more than a man

One whose image is tainted

Along with dirty hands
