The Philosophy of Water

Be water 
Brother be water
For if you put water in a 
cup
It takes the shape of the 
cup
Put water in a tank
It will take the shape of 
the tank
Put water in a pool
And it will take the shape 
of the pool
So be water 
Brother be water
Rise to any height
Don't stop the fight
Take your form
Do perform
A running water can not be 
still
So keep flowing
Go on, keep moving
Don't stop brother 
Flow like water
