Wisdom's crying in the streets tonight Her voice echoes in the pale moonlight She says stop chasing shadows stop the fight What's silver to your soul what's gold to your sight I asked the wind where the answers hide It laughed said they're carved in the mountain’s side But the mountain ain't talking it's keeping pride So I dig through the dust where the truth resides A fool dances where the fires burn Won't listen won't watch won't even learn But a wise man waits till the wheel can turn Patience like water soft but firm The crooked path whispers take the chance It's gold plated promise don't advance Integrity keeps you in the righteous stance Not every song deserves your dance Look to the stars they don't deceive Plant what you want your roots to weave Seek it find it hold it tight Wisdom's brighter than the brightest light Understanding walks the narrow height Living righteous makes your burden light Eyes wide open in the dead of the night The world throws shadows but I crave the light My heart's a fortress with a fragile door Each thought a soldier in a quiet war I hear whispers some sweet some foul Gotta filter the truth from the wolves that howl Brick by brick I build my mind A castle of wisdom where the wise unwind The tongue's a fire it sparks and burns A gentle word heals a cruel one turns Every sentence a seed you sow Will it bring life or let weeds grow I've seen hearts crumble from careless talk Words like stones on a fragile walk Speak with love hold back the knife Your voice can give or take a life So think twice let wisdom flow Plant the seeds that help us grow Guard the gates don't let em in What you let inside shapes the skin Guard the gates keep em strong The words you speak will echo long Sweat drips clock ticks no time for delay Lazy hands make poverty that's what they say Ants hustle in the summer stacking for the cold Wisdom whispers softly but the truth is bold A sluggard dreams while the diligent sow Patience builds a kingdom but it grows slow Iron sharpens iron let the sparks ignite Discipline’s a battle but the end feels right Better a little earned with peace in your hands Than riches gained from broken plans Fools chase the wind but the wise plant roots Each effort’s a seed watch it bear sweet fruits Don't envy the cheater their house won't stand Build on the rock not on sinking sand Grind it out don't stop keep your eyes ahead Discipline's the crown on the worker's head Step by step through the heat through the rubble No short cuts here just the wisdom hustle Inspired from Proverbs
