In illusions' snare, souls are confined,
Deceived by empty triumphs, left behind.
Ego's chains enslave, in haze they stay,
Their inner voice silenced, lost in disarray.

Beware, your Instagram likes may decline,
And your virtual fame might lose its shine.

Awaken, shatter deceptive dreams,
Recognize shackles that stiflingly scheme.
Embrace truth's radiant light, claim your right,
Unfettered, your spirit takes flight.

Mind the gap between truth and your pride,
Lest your ego crashes, and you can't hide.

Self-awareness liberates, shines the way,
To authentic victories, each new day.
Substance over shadows, wisdom's call,
Freedom's path unfolds, for one and all.

Self-awareness brings inner sight,
And transformation may require a new light.
