Is it Empathy for others or else ...?

In the human heart,

deceit often begins not with malice
but with “reasoning.” It is the same quiet logic that

excuses theft as “deserved,” desire as “love,” or

vanity as “truth misunderstood.”
This sungpoem exposes that inner courtroom —

where conscience is silenced, and clever words

defend what should be

condemned.

Lies, like theft or adultery,

rarely stand alone. They serve as masks for envy,

greed, and pride — the offspring of covetousness.
Each false witness, whether whispered or

rationalized, is a theft of reality itself: a way to

twist what is, to serve
what we want.

Through rhythm and irony, this reflection unmasks

the selfish grammar behind our

moral decay — the same tone that justifies all sins
with “good reasons.”

It reminds us that truth is not just a virtue,
but a boundary that protects the soul from its own

excuses.
