It's On Now!
I once heard of a man,
 so happy,
 he had the world in his hands.
 I spoke to him,
 can i hold the stars?
 and he said it doesn't matter to me.
 
 I once met a man,
 who was so strong,
 he held the world on his back.
 I asked him,
 how heavy can it be?
 Than he drowned me out with the seas.
 
 Yet i met another,
 with courage in his heart,
 his sails pointed to the edge of the world.
 I questioned his intelligence,
 and he said he didn't need it,
 he proved us all wrong.
 
 Looking forward,
 I could not see,
 another who puzzled me.
 I looked to the sky,
 and there he sat,
 a man on the moon,
 looking mysterious as ever.
 So i yelled it has to be great!
 and he looked to me,
 words he didn't speak,
 dust and webs cloaked,
 as he is alone.
 
 It's on now!
 I screamed and went to each,
 I grabbed the world from his hands,
 and i created a rainbow,
 trailing from land to land.
 
 I shrunk the giant,
 to normal size,
 he sighed with relief,
 as the world spun on it's sides.
 
 I took his ship,
 added wings,
 told him to discover everything.
 With a slight salute,
 and a grin on his face,
 he sailed deep,
 into the wonderful unknown.
 
 I built a ladder,
 and sat and talked,
 with a man of silence,
 oh he couldn't stop. 
 We climbed down,
 and showed him the beauty,
 of the noises of nature.
 
 So what I found,
 is no matter what,
 in the end,
 Passion is Motivation.
