The storm and rain keep it away

But every morning it comes back to stay

Like a clawing, tearing, biting thing

In every word I hear it ring

Don't forget yourself, it says to me

Don't lose yourself in a mental sea

Your mind is strong, your body too

your soul is light and your heart is true

You have no need for pride, none for power

When need arises you'll have your hour

Keep your head down, play it straight

and When the time comes, don't be late
