HOLLYWOOD LURE <\/p>\n

Surely you think your life is fine,
\nLots of money, you wine and dine.
\nFancy clothes and a brand new car,
\nOn the boulevard you have a star.<\/p>\n

You have a big home with a pool,
\nNeighbors are actors, it’s so cool.
\nFans adore you, you are top rate,
\nBut what about your eternal fate?<\/p>\n

Tho Hollywood fame is your goal,
\nOh be careful, it will rob your soul.
\nSome do things to make a name,
\nBut later it will bring them shame.<\/p>\n

Please do not lose your morality,
\nDon’t accept money for indecency.
\nMaintain a standard, keep it high,
\nFor you’ll face God when you die.<\/p>\n

All of that fame which you crave,
\nDisappears when you hit the grave.
\nYour works will be judged by God,
\nYou’ll be rewarded or get the rod.<\/p>\n

So now is Hollywood truly for you?
\nIf not, find something better to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
