Blessed is the man
That endures the trials
For when he's tried
He shall receive the crown
Blessed is the man
That endures temptation
For when he's tried
He shall receive the crown of life

If only we could sow
Without the need to plow
If only thoughts could flow
Like crops, plentiful, grow
Empirical machine
Which lashes all illusions
Your gears still grind my effort
Maintaining in confusion
"Be patient and tough
Some day all this pain will be useful
Be patient and strong
One day you will understand"
Your teaching feels like drowning
In lakes of liquid fire
We're frowning as you're preaching
To all those, who aspire
Remind me I am nothing
And lighten my perception
For I am blind like love
And bound to imperfection
That endures the trials
For when he's tried
He shall receive the crown
Blessed is the man
That endures temptation
For when he's tried
He shall receive the crown of life
