Your arrogant pride
With crude supple remarks
Will fall
Not as some see
But as the truth comes
Like the wind
It will billow and blow
Stirring your inner soul
Your arrogant supple crude remarks
Will fall to the ground
Like the spinning leafs 
Of falling in the Fall
Your arrogant pride no more
No longer crude and supple 
But soften with the truth 
Of the billowing wind
As its strength blows 
The light and truth
Into your your inner soul
