My Brilliant Career

I: Earth
Marching firmly across a rock so pure
With each step building up with momentum
Today’s the day a pilgrimage began
On this path leading towards the future
Marching relentlessly with a clean slate
All heading to the Promised Land at last
Forgetting ‘bout the demons of the past
Because now’s not the time to hesitate
Underneath the rays of purest sunshine
Move ever forward, emerge triumphant
Only the strong challenge establishment
Today is the hour, now is the time

At journey’s end, grasp the cup of success
And taste the purest taste that is the best

II: Sun
You know something? I feel like I can fly
I have the strength to reach the greater height
I want to run and jump and to take flight
I feel like reaching out to touch the sky
Burning forward with the power of one
I want to bask in the pure light of the sun
Flexing my muscles, I will climb so high
Destiny is calling. Now is the time
I’m gonna get there, sweat drips from each pore
Sure I did plummet from grace once before
But now I’m climbing back to the sunshine

I feel like spreading out my silver wings
And fly up towards the palace of kings

III: Moon
I’m a cork in the middle of the sea
I’m the voice that no one else can concede
Guided by a map nobody can read
Is there anyone else that can hear me?
Can someone else tell me where I came from?
I’ve lost contact with the rest of the world
I cannot walk for my strength has been quelled
Can someone else tell me where I went wrong?
Memories drift into this barren surface
Memories of when it was all fertile
Memories of when I could walk a mile
But the old way is gone leaving no trace

Without direction, I left to linger
As the life I knew slips through my fingers

IV: Infinity
Forget everything that’s happened before
Forget all the times where one has fallen
Just listen to the voice that is calling
An invitation to go and explore
There is a world out there on which to tread
The way’s made out to a world of wonder
A world of marvels, beauty and colour
So take a long deep breath and move ahead
Can’t stop now, there’s too much to do and see
To slip here would be a dreadful crime
So take it all with one step at a time
Until you’ve finally achieved victory

At last, I drank from the cup of success
To taste the purest taste that is the best
