Forged
I'm no cynic
I know my past
Can't guess my future
Solid
I'm no cynic
I know nothing
Can't guess forever
Imperfect
Burnt
I'm not bitter
But not so sweet
I'm no cynic
I know now
Can't guess tomorrow
Face value
Right before my eyes
I see what I see
And maybe it's flawed
But it's forged
By life
And stronger still
I'm no cynic
I know what I see
Can't guess my perception
Biased by the past
But hoping in the future.
