Verse I
When they gave blessings,
mine were poured on the ground
so I may bend my back to pick them up Overturning every obstacle
For opportunities underneath
Verse II
When they gave blessings
Mine were flung into the sky
Carried away by the wind
Now I wander in wonder
Where they fell.
Verse III
When they gave blessings
Mine were put in a cave
Buried deep with in the earth
Never to see the light of day
Veres IV
When they gave blessings
Mine were placed in a basket
And sent down a river
Now here I am
Always on the brink
