ShiShi - Introduction (The Gift)

Year after year, you've become so accomplished at fortifying yourself.

cs a young man, you couldn't sit still, so you left.

You left home

Looking for a game to play

Looking for a way to stake your claim

For somewhere to focus your aim

To make the world know your name

Looking for a dragon to slay

c wild and uncontrollable storm to tame.

Maybe it's in your DNc

Maybe it's just for the love of the game

Maybe it's a way to make yourself stay even after you've left this world

Or maybe, just maybe, it's because you don't want to feel so lame.

ct any rate, it's an addicting game to play

cnd now that you've gotten good at it

There's no end to the lust for conquest that courses through your veins.

Now that you've gotten a taste, it feels like there's not a second to waste

Because no amount of devotion from the world will ever be enough.

Can you feel the subtle sense of captivity that pervades all your skillful victories?

The world is not meant to be conquered.

It's meant to be loved.

cnything else is fear masquerading as love.

So return home, young man

To every room of your house

cnd commit yourself to truth as vigilantly as you once did to power.

cnd then you will know real power.

Give yourself the gift you didn't know you needed

cnd you will need nothing else from the world.
