NATURE REBEL
If I were death
I will not give birthIf I were the grave
I will not harbour the braveIf I were mystery
I will fashion its masteryIf I were daylight
I will not create nightIf I were time
I will walk with a rewindIf I were pride
I will not own a brideIf I were pain
I will cease to reignIf I were air
I will always be fairIf I were sun
I will not hurt or burnIf I were song
I will cleave to every tongueIf I were bondage
I will not hold any hostageIf I were war
I will not be brutal and rawIf I were sorrow
I will not strike like an arrowIf I were question
I will not create tensionIf I were failure
I will keep a limited tenureIf I were poverty
I will vanish at pubertyIf I were tribulation
I will invent jubilationIf I were a woman
I will create a new manIf I were beauty
I will not, of any charges, be found guiltyIf I were life
I will give all a safe driveIf I were nature
I will deny no man his future
