Life in turbulence pandemic on the rise
Grounded in the hangar under lockdown skies
Aviation lifeblood drained my dreams capsize
Desperate for a turnaround a new path to devise
Enter stage left connect through the kin
Offer from a syndicate wrapped in business sin
Like a savior preaching faith while grinning through the din
Pulled me into management the spider's web to spin
Character exploited a marionette in play
CDL schools blossomed money paved the way
Millions in the making, workhorse in the fray
First school out, side-lined to dismay
In the corner of the world sniffin scent of strife
Laughed at by the syndicate cutting like a knife
Yet from the rear door shadows emerged a crafted life
Guided by the unseen Hand, through the daily strife
Pushed to the margins by a stench-encircled door
Humbled yet observant my spirit needed more
Walled pride in the brickwork my dignity restored
But they saw my worth again back to the fore
Partnership enticement game of give and take
Played into their circus for my very own stake
High-rise office glory panoramic views awake
Next to mafia royalty every move they'd surveil and snake
New sites under my wand wave it watch 'em rise
God's hands on the blueprint beneath the enterprise
Sent on a mission trailer life incognito disguise
Roommates in the cold ambition crystallize
Roommates in the cold ambition crystallize
In the corner of the world sniffin' scent of strife
Laughed at by the syndicate cutting like a knife
Yet from the rear door shadows emerged a crafted life
Guided by the unseen Hand through the daily strife
Winter in the schoolyard, shackled to the dream
Family on the far side life splitting at the seam
Denying comfort's call for a greater team
Dancing with the wolves alone but with a scheme
With the grit of pioneers I wielded tools of trade
Routed power through the silence a solo cavalcade
Jealousy and envy at the empire I'd hand-made
Two hundred grand a month, in spades were profits laid
Manipulation's battlefield now I played the chess
Moved against the moves turned strain into success
No spell nor darkened magic could my purpose suppress
God's shield around me in divine high-protectiveness
In the corner of the world sniffin scent of strife
Laughed at by the syndicate cutting like a knife
Yet from the rear door shadows emerged a crafted life
Guided by the unseen Hand, through the daily strife
Against the grain of giants I carved my own decree
In the hustle of the shadows God's light set me free
From the puppeteer's jest to a legacy's key
I'm a survivor shining what's meant to be will be
