All is over between the giant and me
His brilliance is not as bright as it seemed
I recognized manhood is a matter of choice
Since he is too afraid even if he is already old
I remember the story about the elephant
When it was young and tied on a string
It was too afraid to run and set itself free
So after many years he still thinks the same
Even if he is strong his mind thinks he can’t
When all it has to do is walk to be set free
His large frame was not enough because
His mind is bound and a slave to his gone past
No more need for words to be exchanged
Since you will head off to your place
If you were wise your wisdom should have rewarded you
If you are a fool you alone will suffer
So your inhibitions and immaturity is keeping you
No ounce of inspiration can ever release you
Since you embraced the old baggage with passion
I have done my part and will continue to move on
