A life's work
Glory doesn't come at ease
Through days of hardwork,
we rectify those irregularities
Putting our hearts and minds
And sometimes hurting us,
we strive for the best
For a life's work
We remember Sir WA Mozart,
for his pinnacles of symphony
Sir Plato, a great philosopher
Sir Newton, for classical mechanics
Sir Columbus, for his quest

Brilliance had never been at sale
Maturiy in styles were learnt
It's the passion and love thing
And those burning desires
That inculcates our imagination
Go beyond what we perceive
And materialize it
That a life's work
