We see the sun and it is beautiful

The glow of it brings a desire to rise

Above the weaknesses we give power to

Step by step we proceed, closer today we are

Its call is fantasy twirled in reality

Our dare insanity weighed with belief

That somehow our wildest dreams could really be true

Step by step, we proceed, closer today we are

Our roadmap is the vision we think we saw

The pleasures of today become as shackles that bore

We stare at the rest, resting under the light

Step by step, we proceed, closer today we are

For we have seen something inexplicable

The joy it brings, undoubtedly immeasurable

We do not understand why, but it's too late to stop

Step by step, we proceed, closer today we are

Or are we?

Though we believe that one day, we'd stare at the sun

Gasping at our mind's grasping of its beauty

That we would announce with the cliché pomp we planned

"Started from the bottom, now we are grand "

 Pity we don't realise, the sun cannot be met

That after the morning sun comes an evening moon and a new dream

That we pursue the air, and like butterflies evasive, 

Step by step, we proceed, motivated by day dreams

So pursue with zeal, your deepest desires

But remind yourself they are passing soothers

Vanity upon vanity, riches and beauty still remain

Swept away with time, the fines of dusty plains

Because fulfillment in "things" does not really exist

Until we reach eternity and finally rest in bliss

The morning sun we see would rise and shift

and we would be occupied, with the chasing of it.
