On a road so paved with worry
We see small men who choose to hurry
Detaching from the vows alike
Parting with their stable minds
And on their part we feel some pity
As if they cannot choose
To blend with streets and bustle on
To break upon the face of dawn
Told to reach or to aspire
Risen ranks with meat for hire
And granting wishes for and from
Those beyond beneath the thumb
But I say nay and scramble up
Stand upon the piled luck
For I will speak and soon be taken!
As not a child who is mistaken
If I think it, waves will rise
Space will rocket down the sky!
Gravity will breathe through me
And I will be triumphantly!
The world by then growing weary
Of stars that try to gather light
Eventual blink, trying to sink
As I try to become complete
And I float, above the blue
That's burning black and bubbling
As I've kept myself awake so long
I'm feeling like a vague response
Placed between the dirt and moon
I'm pulled like a man asunder
But a boy standing, tired eyes demanding
I feel a set of doze commanding
So I descend to snooze a bit
Not to those, I shan't retire
Simply napping, Z dispatching
I will return for a word worth catching
Yet until, the hero rests
A kid who's yet to fight against
With all potential so not unsteady
He'll ascend when he's good and ready.
