Lyrics

(Verse 1)
In a kingdom built on honor
Where virtues guide the way
Two souls walked through the courtyard
Each with their own sway
One was seeking self-mastery
The other thirsted for control
One looked inward for the answers
The other played a darker role
[Chorus]
Integrity, integrity
Climbs the mountain, finds the key
Power-hungry, power-crazed
Uses others to be praised
[Verse repeat]
Integrity's got calloused hands
From the work they do each day
Facing flaws and inner demons
Paving their own way
But Mr
Power sits on high
In his ivory tower
Forcing others to his will
Basking in the power
[Chorus repeat]
Integrity, integrity
Climbs the mountain, finds the key
Power-hungry, power-crazed
Uses others to be praised
[Bridge]
One sees the battle in the mirror
One sees pawns in their control
One fights the darkness with a light
The other with a gaping hole
[Verse repeat]
Integrity's a quiet storm
Building strength within
Power's just a noisy game
Where no one ever wins
So, when you choose your path, my friend
Consider what you seek
Is it mastery of yourself
Or dominance of the weak?
