In shadows cast by tongues unkind,
Where whispered falsehoods find their bind,
I stand, besieged by words untrue,
A target of deceitful hue.
Behind my back, they sow their lies,
Crafting webs of false disguise,
Yet unaware, they fail to see,
The strength that lies deep within me.
Their tongues may wag, their whispers hiss,
But truth shall prevail, dismiss their bliss.
For falsehoods fade when light draws near,
Revealing hearts, their motives clear.
I rise above their venomous tongues,
Unyielding to their spiteful songs.
With grace, I stride through darkest nights,
Shielded by my own inner lights.
Their deceit may try to shake my ground,
But steadfast, I will not be found,
For integrity and honor guide my way,
With truth as my armor, I'll never sway.
So let them speak, their lies untrue,
For I am strong, and I know what's true.
Their words may sting, but I shall rise,
With dignity, I claim the skies.
In the face of falsehoods, I'll stand tall,
For truth and justice shall never fall.
No matter what they say or do,
I'll remain steadfast, authentic, and true.
For those who spread deceit and lies,
Shall face the consequences that arise.
I choose to live with honesty and grace,
And in the end, it's truth they'll face.
So let them talk, their words won't sway,
The person I am, day after day.
In my own truth, I find my worth,
Defying falsehoods that seek to hurt.
Don't be affraid, my soul, when rumors fly,
For in the end, truth will defy,
The power of those who deceive and feign,
Leaving behind a legacy of disdain.
I'll rise above, with my head held high,
A beacon of truth, piercing the sky.
And those who speak untruths, they'll learn,
That honesty's fire will always burn.
