Analysis of From Dirt To Destiny

From Dirt To Destiny

From dirt comes distinguished
The substance of Earth
And the basis of beginnings
Rolling around the lowest
Most humble of origins
We make our first appearance
From mud we rise
And through adverse spaces
We aim to transform
Into something special.

Before honor comes humility
A lotus comes through muddy water
Your destiny is to rise above
Ascendancy is the path
You travel to become
A beautiful blossom
If you really want to
No one comes clean
Without having come
From dirt to destiny.
