Who Are You

From the ashes of fire
   We fertilize our crops
From the failures of the past
   We forge ahead for a glorious future
From the scars we carry as badges
   We are reminded of the price of stardom
From the pains we endured
   We are reminded of the gains we enjoy
From the grass we arose 
   We are reminded of His grace and mercy
