When the sun arises,
And the birds perform their melody,
The world awakens, the earth is open,
Everything in sight is free.

It grabs you very hesitant,
As it clings to you for life,
For earth is strong, and beauty stronger,
Cuts deep down like a knife.

The reality will pull you in,
No doubt you'll catch a glance,
What has become all around us?
It's not the same old song and dance.

Keep your eyes wide open,
Heart and spirit held up high,
earth is not what we make it seem,
It's more than just what meets the eye.
