Bathed in a bright light of creation
Heaven casts such a radiant glow
Humanity has the chance to rise
A species born
With an abject curiosity to know
Without stimulus there's starvation
And the chance to rise above slows
But we know there is more
Than this planet
Than this life form
Than the stars above
We must be ready to soar
“The mind is not a vessel to be filled,
but a fire to be kindled.”
