To what do we owe this honour?
Of knowing that we are alive
To live how we see fit
To challenge and obtain the divine

But with it comes responsibility
And the necessity to do good
For we would not want to waste
The gift of our livelihood

We must do what not only is rightous
But what is noble in mind
For together they allow our justice
To which we all live and abide

And to what is noble do you ask
And to that there is but one reply
That is, what is ultimately best with situation at hand
Applying all knowledge we came by

So in order for us to make the right choice
And to live with in the world with harmony
Our minds must be learned, our bodies must be strong
And our souls must live graciously

Because do onto others as you would have them do onto you
Is the teaching that we should live by
When we push others away by means of our hate
Intolerance breeds and suffering thrives

So we live for ourselves in the good for us all
Together we stand divided we fall

Unorthodox mabey, but I grow on you.
