I am the strength
I am the flow
I am the twist
I am the turns
I've cut through rocks
Conquered mountains
Through the forest
I make my way
Swept civilisations
Destroyed ploughed fields
I have lived
change has surrendered
I've soared
roared
Through night and day
Day and night!
I keep ticking
I keep working
I have no friends
Work is my only friend
I am slow
Very slow
A second at a time
Not more no less
M boring
Very boring
I follow the same routine
In and out
But
Consider me not weak
I have tamed
The big
The strong
The mighty
The one that once,
cut through the rocks
Conquered mountains
Now flows around them
Waters them
Tick by tick
Second by second
Perseverance pays
Perseverance
my only strength
