Chapter One; Very long ago

there lived in a valley the heart of a broken man

For the love he lost he would forever yearn

The fruits of life had fallen from a dying vine

As it’s told, she upped and left him cold

He’d bargained all his love for monetary dreams

And all she left was their only son

who’d grow to learn the lessons of his father’s words…

Beware of the burning ladder

There’s nowhere left but down

You know I made a fortune

I made fortune, son

There’s nowhere left but down

Don’t climb the burning ladder

There’s nowhere left but down

Chapter Two; His father passed away

“From this day forth I will heed my father’s wishes”

Then one day he would embrace new love,

but only to be tempted by his want of money
