The Man Made Of Stone

I see the shape of whatever was made

And reason shows us of what we became

These are the memories one must recall

When building stones into the strongest wall

The lesser man will make his way apart

While the greater one is the work of art

We all admire the laughter and fame

The definite gravity of the name

There are reflections of him

While they fight for the throne

They’ll never have the presence

For the man made of stone

The steady hand that became the teacher

A student leaning in on the keeper

We have seen the master bending our thoughts

But nothing close to the feelings he taught

They will swell their prospects and show their pride

But the ones not like him are those denied

The war that our world presents to us all

Gave the man of stone, all things great and small

There are reflections of him

While they fight for the throne

They’ll never have the presence

For the man made of stone

All the new world decisions

Still the choices never change

In keeping everyone safe

The thoughts must be rearranged

If we seek so shall we find

Strength that molds one man from two

Lessons given, lessons learned

Everything is owed to you

There are reflections of him

While they fight for the throne

They’ll never have the presence

For the man made of stone
