Pharaoh Poem by David Andre' Klopper

Hey....... Pharaoh!
So what is it you think you know?
As above so below?
You will never grow if you aim too low!

You remember the magic and the gods,
But you forgot where they came from,
You are still playing in the sand,
You should be flying amongst the stars,

While you stumble around,
Looking for fertile ground,
Our bodies fill the mound!
Hearts tightly wound,
Waiting for you to run aground,

You still trying to keep their secrets,
Secrets you don't understand,
Wish you could just be a man!
Oh lord deliver me from this land!

Hey....... Pharaoh!
So what is it you think you know?
As above so below?
You will never grow if you aim too low!

Look deep within your heart, find the truth,
Where do we come from, us on planet earth?
Who are we and where are we going to?
What is our true reality?
Time for you to fulfil your destiny,

Kings must lead and serve the many,
Before they can fly amongst the stars!

Hey....... Pharaoh!
So what is it you think you know?
As above so below?
You will never grow if you aim too low!
Hey......Pharaoh, who do you think you are?
Hey......Pharaoh, who do you think you are?
