I'm a stone
Though I may fall,
I will not shatter.
Though I may be stepped upon,
I will not break.
Overlooked and forgotten,
I'll not wither.
I'm all stone
Flesh and bone,
lifeless
I'm a stone.
Though season may come and go,
Storms will come and pass.
Wherever life kicks me
I shall make it my home.
And if it should be,
That the gravity of this world crushes me
I shall reinvent myself to sand
But forever I'll remain resolute and true to myself.
Unharmed,
Unchanged,
Incorruptible.
Whichever way life shalt use me,
Weapon or shield,
Stepping stone or a rock,
I'll remain true to myself.
I'm all stone
Flesh and bone
Lifeless
And all alone
I'm a stone.
I will not shatter.
Though I may be stepped upon,
I will not break.
Overlooked and forgotten,
I'll not wither.
I'm all stone
Flesh and bone,
lifeless
I'm a stone.
Though season may come and go,
Storms will come and pass.
Wherever life kicks me
I shall make it my home.
And if it should be,
That the gravity of this world crushes me
I shall reinvent myself to sand
But forever I'll remain resolute and true to myself.
Unharmed,
Unchanged,
Incorruptible.
Whichever way life shalt use me,
Weapon or shield,
Stepping stone or a rock,
I'll remain true to myself.
I'm all stone
Flesh and bone
Lifeless
And all alone
I'm a stone.

A string if words with more meaning, then what reaches the eyes and very well composed my, South African King, it is good to see you decorating your canvas with insightful rewards to the mind
