Intro

Em C

All you gEmreat men of power, you who bCoast of your feats

PolitiEmcians and entrepreneurCs

Can you Emsafeguard your breath in the Cnight while you sleep

Keep your Emheart beating steady and sCure

As you lDie in your bed, does the tAm6hought haunt your head

That you’re Emreally, rather sA7mall

If there’s oCne thing I know in this liB11fe: we are beggars Emall.

All you Emchampions of science and rCulers of men,

Can you Emsummon the sun from its slCeep

Does the Emearth seek your counsel on Chow fast to spin

Can you sEmhut up the gates of the deepC

Don’t you Dknow that all things hang, as Am6if by a string,

O’er the Emdarkness, poised to A7fall?

If there’s Cone thing I know in this liB11fe: we are beggars Emall.

All you Embig shots that swagger and sCtride with conceit,

Did you dEmevise how your frame would be forCmed

If you’d be rEmaised in a palace, or lCive out in the streets,

Did you cEmhoose the place or the hour you’d be Cborn

Tell me wDhat can you claim? Not a tAm6hing, not your name

Tell me iEmf you can rA7ecall just one Cthing,

That’s not a gift in this lB11ife

Can you Amhear what’s been said

Can youB11 see now that everything’s Emgrace after aA7ll

If there’s oCne thing I know in this B11life: we are beggars all. Em
