Hand Forged

Have you ever considered the elements it takes...

The ingredients inside to make someone great...

Is it something they do or something they create..?

Giving it some thought... some mental debate...

Perhaps it's through words so soft and so dear...

Or their callous ability... to create respect through fear...

People are strange when given some thought...

Seems most aspiring to something their not...

Is a king an almighty and powerful force..?

Destroyed by a nameless man...

Incapable of remorse...

Is it he... now destined for greatness..?

Or to remain the shadow forever faceless...

Every man only one step away...

Considering a choice that can change today...

With momentum building through every stride...

Emphasizing our awareness of being alive...

Beautiful things can happen to the unlikeliest of man...

Are the great ones born..?

Or are the forged by hand...
