Try man as much as you can
To execute your dearest plan
Lies and tricks you freely say
Devilish games that you play
Where do you think they’ll end
To glory your empire will send?
You have exploited the simple
Gifted them poverty to grapple
Against some you polluted mind
Impartial, just, truthful and kind
Try man, scheme and conspire
To the best of your caliber fire
Souls you can never eliminate
However low in value you rate
Try man as much as you can
To execute your crooked plan
A clever success you presume
A long stride opted to doom
You have chosen not
to see
Blind you’re not, wished to be
In the plan there’s a tiny flaw
Your palace to dust it’ll gnaw!
