Arrogant

Most of you,
like to be
King of the hill,
top of the heap.....

Well,
I like to show a facade of difference.
It was this morning,
I was praised.
I somehow hate to be a bit glee,
Never showing that im proud of it.
 
I like it better if i just kept quiet,
and not boast too much.
Ever heard of ,
The higher they are,
The harder they fall.
The more arrogant i get,
It will just lead me to my own demise.

It's better if i stay low,
Avoiding acknowledgement is what i believe in,
Waiting for the right moment, 
Forging my foundation,
Never unveiling what i've done.
Then when i really am confindence,
That is when i spread my wings.

Even though i have a firm foundation,
We cant be too careful,
What do angels last see when they die?
It's their own downfall,
They lost their wings,
thrown far from grace,
Down to the chasm of the abyss.

There are others that are better than me,
Why dont we just aim for the top,
instead of gradually presenting our own results,
when others are there to insult you 
every steps in your way?
