Day Fourteen: Pride Lyrics

[Me]</i> I have always been creative, I don't understand
Aspired to be an artist, not a business man
[Pride]</i> You need to show your old man you're in control
To be successful, you'd sell you own soul!

[Me]</i> I've always been respectable, I don't understand
I tried to be compa*sionate, I'm not a ruthless man!
[Pride]</i> You need to show them you're superior, you lead the field
No one opposes you, all man must yield!

[Me]</i> I've always been affectionate, don't understand
I really love her, I'm not a heartless man!
[Pride]</i> You have no time for commitments, they get in the way
Get down to business, there's no time to play!

[Reason]</i> You can still change, and right what is wrong
[Pride]</i> But can you swallow me, or am I too strong?
[Reason]</i> You have to get back now, it's not too late
[Pride]</i> It's not like you two resign to your fate
[Reason]</i> The loved ones are waiting, break out of you cage
[Pride]</i> You have the power, give in to your rage
[Reason]</i> Listen to Pride now, for once now he's right
[Pride]</i> Listen to Reason, let us be your guide
