Socrates..."The greatest way to live with honor is to be what we pretend to be."
OPEN UP THE PACKAGE
Do we use our make-up to disguise who we are?
Are we really the people in that luxury car?
Does the suit we wear
And the color of our hair?
Prove we live in the world of avatars?
If our clothes are tattered and torn
And our expression is that of forlorn
The slogan in red
On our t-shirt, it said
"It's not me" in the wrap we're adorned
Is it to be who we are how we look?
So often our character is no open book
Are the good in shirt and ties?
Is it the rags we all despise?
Is our packaging just bait on a hook?
Open up the package and see
Who's inside in all reality
The depth of the soul
Doesn't glitter like gold
Draped in elegance or heaped in debris
