I am the universal language
I make all communicate
I hang on mountain's cliff
I swim the deepest seas
I am invincible,
I am what I am...
I am a noble knight...
The sharpest swords, my shining armor
His majesty, the emperor...
Without a kingdom, what is a crown?
I am a beauty titlist...
Without some brain, I am but empty
On arable land, I am those seeds
With sun and water, there would be harvest
No man is an island, I do believe
Everything matches another...
Everyone relies on each other
I have a lofty nest with vast domain
Highly-spirited, I carved my way
Strongly-willed, I could soar high
But, the higher I fly, the heavier I fall
Am I invincible?
Am I really what I am?
I can cheat death...
I can go against my fate
I could celebrate life,
I could choose my own affair
When love speaks to me...
To choose between heart and mind
I am invincible...
Yet, I am but human
I have my feelings...
My imperfections
I am still weak...
Despite will to go on
I know in the end...
From the path I cross
My surrendering heart,
Is still in control
The great destiny is my boss!
I'm the secretary taking notes
It could dictate me my fate
All I got to do is to accept
A poetry book of my life
Its printed in black and white
The words I do not write
I live them as lines of my palm
I hope to favor, I couldn't defy
I'm not the master of my fate
Im just the writer of my book
Am I invincible?
I am...but...
I couldn't be what I want
I might not be what I am!
