Behold, here stands before you gold
Behold, here stands before you awesomeness
Behold, behold, behold!
The majesty of the love inside
The sanctity of the crest of the bloodline
The rarity of the piercing eyes
The depth, the power, the prize
And yet, it is clothed in rags and dirt
And yet, it is plagued with toil and hurt
And yet, it is covered with maggots and mirth
And yet, it is sick, and lonely, and cursed
Who knows the way to unlock its true form?
Who has the heart to endure through its storm?
Who knows the way to make bitter transform?
Who has the power to release it from scorn?
For behold, here stands before you royalty
Behold, here stands before you gold
Behold, here stands before you awesomeness
Behold, behold, behold!
Time, it allows the pressure to change it
Time, it removes impurities, makes it clear
Time, it heals all of her wounds her diseases
Time, time, and time ever here
He digs with his tools and his hands and his might
He goes down deep getting covered in filthy
He presses with the heart of a militant knight
And he digs up his treasure, he carries it along
And he takes it to the shop, and carefully works long
To shape it to mold it to its purest form
To remove all the dust, to present it upon its throne
He is safe not to crush it or take from its integrity
He wants to preserve its value, its worth
He polishes, shines it, with all of his energy
He protects it, he treasures it, he remembers its birth
And presenting it to the world, alas!
Presenting it to the first, the last
Presenting it to the clergy, the outcast
Presenting it to the few, and the mass
"Behold, here stands before you royalty
Behold, here stands before you gold
Behold, here stands before you awesomeness
Behold, behold, behold!"
