I hope to be humbled by the pain
By the fall, to remind as high
As I climb I'm a step away from the bottom
A step away from hell
A step away from the blind man's fate
Or worse
I hope to boast my ego by perseverance
To be praised by the sweat that flows
Like the Nile from forehead to foot
From mind to act
I hope to be carried by fear and dreams
To be that negotiation between the extremes
To know what chance is
And to take like last breath
To be all this in hope and faith
To forever...
