Love or Fame

Her's is a story of a man that exchanged his love for fame.

He lost his mind and soul while in pursuit of the game. 

He thought like everyone that with money comes everything, with no realization of the price to be paid.

Life is the chess of mysteries and each day we play. 

There is always a pawn who thinks he knows a better way.

The challenger dare not defeat the one who invented the game.

So tell me now is it love or is it fame?

You think he'd know by now that his answer was not the cure, but his imperial addiction had played him the fool.

No matter how much he spent he was still very unfulfilled by the time his lesson was up his luxury ended!

Lifes the chess of mysteries and each day we play.

There is always a pawn who thinks he knows a better way.

The challenger dare not defeat the one who invented the game.

So tell me now is it love or is it fame?
