Inspired by the G.O.A.T

I have a voice and it too speaks.

I have a call that can cause great waves and winds of change

Imbued with a power that is not my own.

But on which I rely and will eternally lean on.

And powerful over minds and hearts it will be

But directing attention and Glory not back to me

But to the One who gave me such Authority

To a Will and Plan for all eternity

Yes I have a voice and it’s the horn of a midnight cry

It’s the song of a lark on the eve of sunrise.

And if the instrument is clean and the vessel refined by fire

It will take off, evolve, expand and multiply

And it can rise up, inspired by near anything

But it hopes to inspire many a blessed thing

Yes I have a voice and it too, speaks

(R.I.P Muhammad Ali 1942-2016)
