~* MY NAME IS PRIDE *~


My Name Is Pride

My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
I cheat you of your God-given destiny...
because you demand your own way.


I cheat you of contentment...
because you "deserve better than this."


I cheat you of knowledge...
because you already know it all.

I cheat you of healing...
because you're too full of me to forgive.


I cheat you of holiness...
because you refuse to admit when you're wrong.


I cheat you of vision...
because you'd rather look in the mirror than out a window.


I cheat you of genuine friendship...
because nobody's going to know the real you.


I cheat you of love...
because real romance demands sacrifice.

I cheat you of greatness in heaven...
because you refuse to wash another's feet on earth.


My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
You like me because you think
I am always looking out for you.
Untrue.

I am looking to make a fool of you.
