It’s in your mind all the time
but you still resist
even when you are doomed
you persist

All around you everyone cheats
why shouldn’t you
things don’t move on this way
being you

Then again when is it a cheat?
when is it not?
questions to boggle the mind
on the spot

Principles may fade sometimes
when mind not clear
it’s tempting to be honest
oh dear

At a time everyone cheats
you play fair
shows a man of purity
you dare

Strange not to cheat today
life moving fast
someone who does not cheat
at last
