Under skies of gold
Lives the young and old
Passion in my head
As well, deep in my soul

The rays of sun
The bitter cold
Shed some light
Stand up, be bold

On a journey
Through paths unknown
Made of blood, sweat, and stone

Curious minds are under fed
Not a rule, just a trend
Better off left for dead

Those before and
Those ahead
Cannot relate
To what’s in your head

Give me pain till I say when
Please let go and start again
It’s for real, not pretend
Begrudged until the bitter end
