When I was young and foolishI wanted more to beI would imaginate and exaggerateGood things that happened to meIt did boost my ego and impress all my friendsBut with bad advice I paid the priceThis story doesn’t endFrom this charade the price I paidHas a two-fold lesson learnedTruth comes out -reveals the liesCredibility’s seriously burnedThe ego that I hoped would riseWas spit back in my faceWith no surprise my friends despisedI was a real disgraceI never played that game againI can still recall the painMy first lesson in integrity -My actions had nothing to gain
