He followed the river
He walked with the trees
The goal of his journey
To the source of the stream
Alone he would shiver
Along with the breeze
Chasing the memory
He caught in a dream
There's a place in the sky where the gods lie in slumber
Waiting to be released
They say that they'll grant him the gift of an answer
Awakening them from their sleep
He carried a passion
A burning desire to know
This quest of obsession
Would drive him into the unknown
No rest would he get as he trekked to west
Racing the sun to the peak
Enduring the test for a question of purpose
Hoping to find what he seeks
Standing at the heel of the mountain of dreams
Staring in awe of the feat
Facing the challenge that towered before
Telling himself, it's not as hard as it seems
