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
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 inside of you, in spite of you
With strength and sacred grace
But for all you do, I'll carry you
From this bitter place
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
