Could It Be

we choose our destinies
we influence reality
we surf the waves of time
we travel whither we will

fate is merely an illusion
we are fate's own engineers
our limitations are self-imposed
we could fly if we thought we could

the well-spring of life is belief
faith is what everyone's lacking
we don't even have a mustard seed
shadows falling down, crashing to earth

dance a dance
spin around reality
hold the world in the palm of your hand
cradle it there, in all its beauty

imagine what a tiny planet this is
yet how many lives interwoven are upon it
you, me, everyone else
just six degrees apart

the inability to believe
in the impossible
is the greatest to
cross the path of humankind

touch the sky
steal a star
but that's physically impossible
equations outlaw such dreams

approximations are to be taken
with a grain of salt
the world is greater than that
which we are able to see
