Strike True Poem by Christopher Tye

Strike True

Strike true and live life being true to yourself,
Stand up for your beliefs and see that justice prevails,
Protect those who you care about with all your eight,
Conduct life with compassion and seek the truth,
Stand up and defend those who can't defend themselves.

Live the life that you need to live,
Remain true to your conscience and remain honourable,
Deal with people as you would hope they would with you,
Follow your heart and dreams in life,
There is no point to life if you fail to stay true to yourself.

Money may ease the path of life but it won't buy happiness,
Flaunting wealth with flash cars and loads of bling,
Billionaire's with private jets and super yachts,
That's not staying true to yourself or humanity,
God won't be swayed by riches, it's the humanity in your heart that counts.
