If a Mountain Be My Obstacle - Shai Hulud

Dust off my back and onward…

Sheer mass and stone

Random bits of bone and organ

Man opposite Mountain

When the earth towers and refuses to bow, I will give it pause

Keep tall, A mountain falls hard

Heart to summit, resolve to mass

Make way, be scaled, or bore through

As fine a motive as obstructing my view

Keep tall: a mountain falls hard

Forge on, conquer

I can move a mountain

Just speak of failure and concede

Strong and silent, I will move a mountain…

Or see it crumble as I break it down

So toward the sky we climb.

This is reachable

Altogether obtainable avow the bones in my back

That I have taken on man and myself with success

I am thrice what I was and much more to become

Forge on…

Move mountains, or break them down

Know the will of granite lies in bone.

Steady dome, cause my brow and body to

sweat

My tendons to ache

Crimson the earth

Make bloodstained mountains

Sheer mass and stone

Random bits of bone and organ

Plow through the mountain

Dust off my back and onward
