SMOKE ON THE WATER

Smoke on the water, in the sun 
Time for journey is time for fun 
From depth of plains to mountains high 
Singing songs that will never die 

From heights of north to the center 
My feet sweep deep like a painter 
Painting through pathways to my fate 
Even when I woke up too late 

The ways ahead can be so dark 
And there's a dark cloud on my spark 
I just walk with my faith ahead 
And halo of hope on my head 

Smoke on the water, flame on ice 
There's sizzle on my cold dice 
For, life is not about your fall 
It's how you came back and stood tall

Rhyming couplets 
8 syllables per line
