One Step Higher

One step higher
 ♪
 A hundred candles to light
 A thousand waves to sail
 At least a whole life to understand the mess
 A thousand maps to discover
 A million ways to be traced
 A million newborn lives to be lived
 And still a long way to glimpse the peak
 A never-ending line to attain lucidity
 To evade insanity
 Learning to climb I will reach the clouds
 (As long as they are there when I go)
 One step higher a stronger heart will guide my walk
 Once on the top as light as the wind
 (My whole baggage will disappear)
 Feet on the ground and soul in the mist
 Finally free
 A thousand seeds to grow
 A million plants to be sown
 A boundless jungle to explore and get lost
 A hundred songs to write
 A myriad of words to pronounce
 Still how many melodies to be sung?
 And how much time to decode
 This never-ending file of old notes, forgotten scores?
 Secrets to be unfold
 Learning to climb I will reach the clouds
 (As long as they are there when I go)
 One step higher a stronger heart
 Will guide my walk
 Once on the top as light as the wind
 (My whole baggage will disappear)
 Feet on the ground and soul in the mist
 Finally free
 Ex nihilo nihil fit
 In pertinacia victoria
