You are both Michelangelo and the unhewn marble,
The hand that carves the lifeless into form
Do not falter,
Let every strike spark fire,
Chisel dreams from dust and bone,
Each blow a heartbeat, each cut a prayer
Hammer away, hammer away, hammer away
Until the marble breathes beneath your touch

You are both Michelangelo and the unhewn marble,
The hand that carves the lifeless into form
Do not falter,
Let every strike spark fire,
Chisel dreams from dust and bone,
Each blow a heartbeat, each cut a prayer
Hammer away, hammer away, hammer away
Until the marble breathes beneath your touch
