I am in the air now I am in your lungs I am written I am spoken by a million flaming tongues I'm the lens through which you see I'm the process I am the key I am synapses firing bullets from a gun I'm the world's mystique I am the words you speak I am language I am hidden memories that you seek I am the sun before you see me rise I burn still when you close your eyes I am the soul that never dies when flesh is weak I am inside of you in spite of you With strength and sacred grace But for all you do I'll carry you now From this bitter place I am in your future I am in your past I'm the echo of your footsteps I'm your shadow cast I'm the heat you radiate I am the fury and the fate I am each beat within your heart from first to last I'm your action without thought I am the instinct born inside you I'm the bones from which you drape I am protective skin to hide you I'm the pull that the earth exerts I am the rain that stings and the snow that blinds I'm the architecture of your world and mind I am the dawn of ages I am the days seen through I'm final entropy I am inside of you I am the clouds that cover Your way into the blue I kiss with life to give All this in spite of you
