People tell you lots of things
they tell you not to be guarded
even though you're royalty
then your kingdom crumbles
but if it wasn't for a lack of loyalty
and a lack of trust
the empire you were trying to build
wouldn't have turned into dust
now those people tell you to rebuild
but criticize you for putting up walls
do you know what's the worst
listening to other people
rather than yourself first
it's easy to point out the problem
but rarely do you hear a solution
that's why there's so much confusion
which people have your back
or which people put up a front
and whose words you take to heart
if you only knew your worth
then you would know where to start
should things ever fall apart
