All I Need Is One Backpack

 All I Need Is One Backpack and I can reach the Sky
 and bring back a pocket full of Stars to testify,
 I have caught the Sun, in a Swift Moment Is All
 Running against the Wind, I Travail in Bards
 All I Need Is One Backpack and I shall Deep Dive the Seas of Life
 and bring back the Hidden Mysteries, Thrice
 and Gallop I shall, Full Speed like Marengo
 into the Sacred Mountains and Deserts where my Illumined Feathers Glow,
 all I need is in this moment and I shall grasp the Light within
 and Forge a song of Sorrow to Valor like I was Shakesperean,
 for every Grain of Sand Crossed, a Glorious Victory
 for every life lived, right here right now, I stand acclaimed in Liberty
 All I Need Is One Backpack to Infinity I shall go and beyond
 and Blaze Trails to the Celestials like a Beatific Vagabond,
 One Foot Forth into the Sky where Savants Ride
 One Dream, One Quest, One Epic Flight
 All I Need Is One Backpack and I Shall Reap and I Shall Sow
 to Dare, To Dream, to Know
 to go to the Higher Places more
 and I shall bring back the Hidden Treasures of Old,
 where the Eternal Rivers Flow, there I shall Travail
 One Step for Heaven, One Trumpet for Hell
 All I Need Is One Path, One Pack, One Bushwack out the Strongholds
 and I shall Triumph out the Drudges in Pure Orinoco Flow,
 and so, I Go Marching Ever Forth
 One Final Stand, One Backpack in Hand, One Sacred Torch
