Everybody says I’m a genius
My teacher says: I’m "Dexter" in academics,
My coach says: I’m "expert" in the game,
My beautician says: I’m "pretty" in looks,
My parents say: I’m a "gifted child" to them,
My friends say: I’m the one they "always needed"
Everybody feels that I am great!
But my soul, dear soul!
O the one to my eternity!
Swear to god of truth and tell me one thing
I may be good for all, but my perpetual soul, tell me
Am I a good human being?
