Those who have not learned to read the ancient classics in the language in which they were written must have a very imperfect knowledge of the history of the human race; for it is remarkable that no transcript of them has ever been made into any modern tongue, unless our civilization itself may be regarded as such a transcript. Homer has never yet been printed in English, nor Aeschylus, nor Virgil even, works as refined, as solidly done, and as beautiful almost as the morning itself; for later writers, say what we will of their genius, have rarely, if ever, equaled the elaborate beauty and finish and the lifelong and heroic literary labors of the ancients. They only talk of forgetting them who never knew them. ↗

We all know life can get hectic But if you live in the second, You exist in the present And that's how you stay connected Go through good times and hardships And if you learn to accept it And know that every struggle in life, Is there to teach you a lesson It's times like this that make you It's always the darkest part of the night, right before the sun has it's break through The spirits there to knock you down, But if you make that the end You will never know the beauty Of being able to stand up again And face it, with patience, The Pace set is dealing With judgements and hatred, Depressed hopeless feelings But I've been told, You only create your own ceilings Life is limitless, And knowing this is what the spirit is That's why I try to inhale deep, so I can find peace, and essence can find me That's why I lose myself in these beats, Let myself become one with the drum and set myself free Whatever direction life leads me, There is a purpose behind it That's the way it was supposed to be And any time you can turn over a new leaf Y'all know the truth, It's up to us to use the key ↗
