His power turned to pain and agony
From place to place he roamed around the street
He met a dame that offered company
And met a man he thought that he could cheat
A reaper came to him inside a dream
And told him to obey the rules of truth
He disobeyed and tried to form a team
Of people that thought they were evils root
he cheated, scammed and robbed kids of their youth
his dame left him because she found the proof
Of truths of evil and a girl named Ruth
Her last words were “you were always fool”
He changed his ways and tried to look for Ruth
The reaper told him to obey the rules
