Pathway To Greatness by Foxybone(m): 1:06pm On Nov 01, 2012 |
Could that be music resounding behind the mountains? The melody drifting in a soulless tune I can’t ascertain Could that be drumbeats playing fervently on the tree tops Swaying the trees from side to side like fragile crops Could that be cymbals sounding in the deepest oceans Raising the waves aloft and splattering in cushion Could that be bells jingling within the rocks Tinkling away like a herd of cattle flock Could that be blast of trumpet sounds Emitting from the dog in every barking round United in melody the voices titrates Free of pains, filled with love, devoid of hate There lies a pathway in the world unknown In the deepest forest of the heart of men unsown Straight like the measuring rule But every step of the way is an obstacle Is that the path the Greatest of them all has taken Bearing on him the greatest of weight and beaten Puffing and struggling with each step Cheered by some while others stood and wept As he climbed up and walked through that pathway keenly Eyes raised and shoulders bruised as He changed destiny For by him a pathway was created with all craftiness The same pathway that leads to greatness There lies the pathway to greatness Forged with blood so that you and I can harness There lies the path we all must take Even if our lives we have to put at stake There lies the path to our redemption Struggle we must through life’s temptation There lies the path that was freely given That our atrocities will be forever forgiven There lies the path spoken of by great men That we must take at that very moment Surely that pathway beckons to us all It we must take for therein lays our call Surely, our greatness lies in the pathway to greatness |
