When you stop learning you are draining
Your value is dipping, you are eroding
The essence in you is wasting and corroding
Your progress is falling, you are declining
The richness in you is waning and fading
Like flies you are dropping and flopping
When you stop learning you are draining
Your value is dipping, you are eroding
The essence in you is wasting and corroding
Your progress is falling, you are declining
The richness in you is waning and fading
Like flies you are dropping and flopping
You see a great mansion now
Where once a void existed
Then it stood only in a mind
In a couple of minds it lived
Till one mind resolved to act
Taking personal responsibility
To lay down the first solitary brick
And that is how the mansion begun
Each time you try again
The obscurity becomes clearer
Cracks begin to appear in the colossus
The impossible no longer seems impossible
It begins to settle deep down that it is possible
