Amethyst, the amalgamation of deep red and blue
Mingles with the motley kaleidoscopic rainbow hue
The sun, moon, and stars melodiously sing together.
Hills, mountains, valleys, and plateaus before bonfires gather
Wisdom, vision, royalty, power, and ambition glow.
Winds of magic, peace, independence, and affluence blow
Wavelengths of courage and bravery win many laurels.
Re-evaluating values, goodness weaves new morals.
Our souls have flown from this world. Yet, like cherubims, they meet
Birth-death existence cycle gloriously they complete
On a blissful earth, air, ether, water, and fire realm
As the controller and the controlled, we're on divine helm.
there comes a time when we are shaken
violently out of pompous and vain complacency
there comes a time for solemn introspection
for re-evaluating priorities and beliefs
there comes a time for sober questioning
meaning and grasping chance for realignment
there comes a time for summoning
self-awareness and restoring faith
it's in such troubled times that we are tested
and somehow the guiding light may shine clearer than ever

Run run run rapidly readily rigorously
Reaching roads rivers railways
Run run run rough remote rambling routes
Realizing regret remorse remain redundant
Run run run re-evaluating racing rituals
Remaining respectful responsible relaxed
Run run run repetitively run run run repeatedly
