Bourgnew's Proverbs
Knowing when you are destined for greatness
How can I likened the birth of a republic? How can I likened the sign of its independence?
Is it not like a divine sign on a child destined for greatness?
Does it not fulfilled the necessary search for knowledge and fulfillment?
Like a knight sought on a quest to preserve their kingdom
Like an angel in swift heat of battle
Like a lion without any destitute of thought
See it has been written on your right thigh
Since your birth were you meant for
wisdom, aspiration, and purity
Wisdom to avert all offenses
wisdom, aspiration, and purity
Aspiration to aspired to greatness
wisdom, aspiration, and purity
Purity to keep hearts toward a perfect union
wisdom, aspiration and purity
Go back to your beginnings
see the sign of your birth
Go back to your beginnings
understand why you were born
Go back to your beginnings
and you will glimpse your part
of eternity
You will see your Heaven
You will see your completion
And rise up to the stars
Lighting the heavens
