#1050 fingernail grit

i'm trying to build me a mountain
but all i got is dirty hands
people shaking people heads

i'm trying
to build me a mountain
i need more dirt
but all i got is sunshine and babbling brooks

i'm trying
to build me a mountain
but their superior smirks are louder than my little voice
tempting me to join, to sit on a throne as a King of Lameness

i'm trying
to build me a mountain
i got no shovel, just two hands, gifts, received from the universe
these hands worked miracles before, they can build a mountain

i'm trying
to build me a mountain
you can watch
you can laugh
you can help
you can build your own
you got your choices
i got mine
i'm building me a mountain
