Proverbs 2

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
