Preparation

Can't be distracted in this phase of hibernation
Rid of distractions, I'm deep in concentration
A time to grow inside, train my body and my mind
Reading and lifting and thinking then unwind

Searching for the truth, analyzing all I find
Buried in my books, I was taught since I was nine
Away from the public, I'm withdrawing from that limelight
Improving on my body, making sure I've got my mind right

Years that I've wasted, making sure they're all made up for
Food for thought tasted, learning from my Saviour
Ensuring I'm ahead and aware of all the evil
Removing all the scales from my eyes so I can see through

The ways of the wicked, deceit and intentions
Think twice before I act, or my thoughts are mentioned
Not solitary confinement, or a long term detention
Ready for improvement, an overdue reinvention
