Analysis of Inevitable fears



I'm wandering, 'cause mine's a windy, rough road,
Humble beginnings and irresistible bliss of childhood,
Molded a heap of ambitious, incorrigible dreams
Flashing success as sweet and yellow as mango cream
Valiantly fought the wars with weapons of fame
Fearlessly stole the stars using my own name.
But cumbersome were the ways to the treasury
Robbers with barking dogs attacked surprisingly,
Pregnant with fears, should I think of abortion?
But will the painting of a child be mesmerized without crayons?
And what will the Israelites have to say of me?
"A cowardice idiot", that's the burden I can't carry.
There I remember my weapons holding my threads of life
I'm the master, why then should they decide?
I myself I'm below my Highness, I was sent here
With mission to succeed, never to despair
Mine is an ever graceful, ever loving King,
Guiding me through life, so I could hug my Prince!
