Can we get beyond ourselves,
mere mortals on this floating rock?
We're only flesh and blood
life has us on the clock.
Beyond man lies a whole universe,
where life can get better or worse.

Most men hate, spend their time
in a foolish selfish state,
They waste away the hours
dishing out thorns and sours.
They rebuke love and caring,
care nothing about others and sharing.

With man lies hate and love,
beyond man there's the angels
and the great God above.
With man there's vision and imagination,
problem solving mathematical equation.
What lies beyond maybe mystery,
sooner or later it becomes history.

So does man.
