Do not be hypnotized by pomp and fame.
Yesterday's applause is just an echo now.
What does it matter if they call your name?
A thousand others will rise and take their bow.
Do not be hypnotized by pomp and fame.
"We're number one," the adolescent chants,
a brash narcissus living his own law.
Ignore the braggarts and the sycophants.
Only One matters, and He knows it all.
Do not be hypnotized by pomp and fame.
