From A Man From Earth

 
From Man To Mankind
I don't have wrath to vent on my foe
Arrogance and ignorance are shame i know
No one has to swell with what they own
Only poor spirits can feel down and low

My name is man, i am eternal god
Eternity, is for the Only one God
But, the time i am granted on earth
Is for good doing, for eternal Lord

Let me not pretend i am the master of all
Death and sickness make me cry and crawl
They make feel little, i kneel with fear and awe
Still am i poorly armed, before the death toll

But Nature has taught me to be water and dust
Taught me to follow the path when dice is cast
Never narrow my sight from watching the skies
And keeping my feet on Earth, steadfast
