Yes
you’re good
you’ve really been good
in accomplishing the things
that had to be done
but your ego’s the size of Mount Everest
towering above who you really are

Well
beware my friend
self-centeredness is a subtle sin
the asphalt arrow aimed towards Hell

Milk it
and you milk yourself
till your soul’s become bone dry
humility however
easily turns the coin over
where there’s a new face to be found
on the other side
