Original text
IV Supremacy is hard to take away when it's a myth embedded in one's thought. My hubris is my due, and it's okay. I can't reject the mantra I've been taught when it's been taught since God himself knows when. Intra species violence seems nature's rule but man's cerebra's special to our ken; that ought to elevate mankind from drool.

I think, therefore I am; and I can hate, and love, and hoard, and share, and laugh, and cry and better that I learn before too late my legacy will be here when I die.

Let's shut down hate before a darkness starts While ample strength abides in good men's hearts
