You've lived a life that’s dishonest
You’ve preyed on the meek and the poor
It’s gotten you to the top of the mountain
But you forgot who you are at the core
You might have accomplished a little
You look like you’re feeling real good
But you might be getting too big of a head
Doing the arrogant things that you did
You celebrate all your successes
You threw a parade in the park
But no one really cares what you’ve done
Your streamers, they fall in the dark
Your parade it seems pretty pointless
The equivalent of the life that you live
All the things you’ve wanted you’ve taken
Never considering of what you could give

CM Punk's last ROH show |
Now this poem is not about CM Punk (former Pro Wrestler) in any way but this picture was the best to illustrate streamers falling in the dark. If you follow pro wrestling, you probably have heard of him. If you don't, then you're probably thinking wrestling is stupid and fake, which is true, but also two of the reasons why pro wrestling is so fascinating.
I would say this poem is pretty self explanatory. If you have reached the pinnacle of success, are you a better person for it? Did you reach the top by knocking others down? Does anyone else care that you made it? If you're celebrating your success and nobody else cares, did you really succeed then?
