The dreams that live inside our heads

The thoughts within our hands

Are like the grains of dust which fly

Throughout the dessert sands

Emotions and feelings are the two

Winds that blow around

Our thoughts and dreams and give them flight

Or bury them underground

                     "I am the master of my thoughts

                      I am the conqueror

                      No one will be as great as I

                      And no one has before"

He that holds the reins of his

Ability to love

Will be given help from the

Ground and from above

                       "So help me, Lord show me the path

                        Smite me, O holy smiter

                        Destroy me or make me great

                        For I am but a fighter"

'He that shall call onto Fate

Will be the one that stands

Defeated by the vast expanse

Of his despised dessert sands

'Like a fish shall he learn to swim

And like a lion, roar 

He is the greatest that will be

And has ever been before'

                           "Answer me, O powerful one,

                           As I stand at your door

                           I am the greatest that shall be

                           Evade me no more"

'He that laughed in agony,

He that tempted Fate

Overcome by arrogance

Now stands at my gate

'I wonder what to tell the man

Do I make him see?

That all his lives, his endless strives 

Mean nothing to me

'He is the master of his thoughts,

He is a conqueror

No one as foolish as he,

Has ever been before.

'Let him stand, let him knock

And batter down my door

Like a thousand others who will try

And have tried to before"
