I met a man He had a dream I tried to understand, but nothing was what it seemed Sometimes, that's how gods roll We'd sit for hours He'd share his plans To build a universe and make every part by hand A big scheme with an infinite goal So, I would watch and listen and try to learn As the pieces and bits became whole But there was more going on than the work at hand What I learned had to do with the strength of the soul There's a light that shines And its power is mine Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable So, step by step And frame by frame A world created, its map fashioned from a stain Just dream big, then work 'til it grows I learned this lesson We can evolve Achieving anything as long as our heart's resolved Believing will make it so Though our lives are limited by years on earth Our dreams won't be bound inside The goal's not to live forever 'Cause eternity loves the creations of time There's a light that shines And its power is mine Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable Don't be afraid Get up, get going A step every day I'll meet you there When we strive, we transcend Even death cannot end our climb I wasn't ready You can't prepare For the unthinkable, for something that's so unfair It's cruel, but that's how life goes But through the sadness Thousands of tears We see his message sparkling and crystal clear Our work is larger than we know There's a light that shines And its power is mine Though our body's weak and breakable The spirit is indomitable
