RISE & SHINE (An Hustler's Steer)

Dawnin' dust, sorrowful crow
Awaken, beseech well off
What opportunity today bringeth?
The search for more, with help cometh from God

Hope, the reason we survive
Marching out like a ferd of war
Seize the sky and shake the world in siege
Beyond this vale of fitful sheen dreams
Chances, we're here to grasp

Dare to dream, power for hope
All the fears of yestertide and hereafter to boundless pit of dismiss
Enliven soul, brighten mind
Widen like the biblical Eden

Another chance, cry of a dying breed
Temptations comes scars, fear the foe
Dreams are stars, hope, our contrivance for counts
The process is doleful, to brook is weighty to our rhythmic paths

Scavenge through the dirt for drive
Divine grace, our ultimum push in the hazy trails

What hope holds today?
Practice comes perfection
Failure comes triumph
Desire comes fire in the belly...

The day might have been empty with cry for solace
But then, we retire to give "Sleep a wink"
Just like always, our help cometh from God
