The night I made the Stars shake

Praise the Sun, I have heard
Hail the Sun King, said an empire that never existed

The Son of God is the only way, says old religious men

 

Yet when I walk outside at night

And taste the algid air and feel the bitter wind

All the stars in the sky, Suns everyone

Have done naught but laughed at me

Down here, cold and tired

 

They burn in the sky with a mighty blaze

They bask in the glory given to them by mortals that walk upon dust and sand

They relish in the chorus of praises given by wise men, sages, astronomers and navigators

 

But yesterday

I marched outside, tired, worn, and bloody from the day

But victorious

and I roared into the sky

I bellowed my voice across the heavens and vibrated the fabric of the sky with my tenacity

 

And the stars shook
