My essence cries as it laughs
I know what it is waiting on
It's waiting to be let out
Waiting for my death

I am waiting impatiently for patience
Knowing that I will never realize I have arrived
Maybe realizing that I must wait
Will open the door to my release

The power I have is over myself
None can take it away
Even when they are more clever than me
None can take it away

So the endless hill stretches to the horizon
And as the sun sets I am still walking
I am walking up the hill of wisdom

While people stand on the sides mocking,

I will never give up
