TAKE LIFE BY THE HORNS
The glorious moment
Despite its inglorious feel
You can "Carpe Diem" any time
'Cause this ain't no Matrix, it's real!
The banner I hang over my head
Is also the secret I keep
Tightly in my heart
Because the world to me is a canvas
And time is an ongoing art.
I cross rivers and valleys
Up mountains and over oceans
I am mixing for everyday situations
Powerful, lucrative potions.
You can charge me a fee
for breathing the air
& you can tax my freedom,
But I don't really care.
Victory comes to those who
Those who don't complain
Like a weepy sheep
just shorn
Triumph comes to the ones who
Take life by the horns.
