This Mirage

Hiding thoughts so deep inside. Clearest minds just stand tongue tied. The flowing water runs so deep one must not be able to leap over everything. Sinking in straightaway. Some rise by sin. Others by virtue fall. This mirage will leave him to crawl. He’s losing touch with what’s already lost as he’s counting on what’s been valued most. He’s a bird in a cage with tied wings. Out of his grief, delight and rage. No open ear to the cold the voice of doubt. He’s a bird in a cage. My free mind is an eagle parting clouds with tireless wings. Out of his grief, delight and rage.!

It's basically karma being a bitch. Good things happen to bad people and bad things to good people. Corrupt people, in today's world are often found at the top of the food chain while the honest honourable man lies in the bottom. It's the ugly dirty truth that the good don't get what they deserve. The other way one can interpret this is, you have to get your hands dirty to get something done.
