Hold the applause
creative thoughts we seem to think
vibrations borrowed from vast space
our muse that appears in a blink
what else is it but gift of grace
hold the applause, we’re not the cause
our consciousness is full of flaws
all eyes on us when we walk in
everything seems to go our way
we don’t need to work hard to win
the sun shines on us every day
hold the applause, we’re not the cause
know ego grips us in its claws
possessions which to us our dear
our social standing, wealth and fame
trophies won praised by the crowd’s cheer
reflect which force steadied our aim
hold the applause, we’re not the cause
put such thoughts of grandeur on pause
