Rain
Before it falls
Must first be a cloud

And the cloud
Before it rains
Must first fill up with water

Ice
Before it melts
Must first gain warmth

Warmth
Before it is felt
Must first find it's way

Spark
Before it burns
Must have the energy to blaze brightly

The bird
Before it flies
Must open its eyes to see the world

To see the world so large
So glorifying

The ship
Before it sails
Must be loaded and prepare for the journey ahead

For the journey ahead
Is an arduous one
The journey ahead
Is one with hardships
The journey ahead
Promises only death
The journey ahead
Is easier with a friend

All these things
They come to mind
All these things
They're less than divine

I am the rain before it falls
I am the ice before it melts
I am the spark before it burns
I am the bird before it flies
I am the ship before it sails
I am the boy before he lives
