The Trasformation To The Dragon

A fairly short piece inspired by the struggle of the Koi to become the beast that kings dare not oppose

Swimming the river ascending
Free of Fear, filled with purpose
Nishikigoi fights through oceans of adversity
Against the current to obtain the highest goal

Swim through oceans of suffering
Climb to the falls of Dragon Gate
Become
Transform from Koi into a beast
Dragon

A living symbol of courage

Determination killer instinct
No wave will shatter these scales

Heart of gold strength of steel

Eyes that see everything you do
Dreams of three eagle claws and the paws of a tiger,
Waterfall's up ahead, one thing left to do

Swim through the sins of suffering
Climb to the falls of Dragon Gate
Become
Transform from Koi into a beast
Dragon

You'll never stop the becoming

You'll never defeat me
This dragon will rise and be the king

All bear witness to a great form
Evolution is complete
A breath that turns into clouds producing rain or fire

Power of gods born without evil
Watch the world move according to each desire

Fight all that opposes

Bow down to the king

Swim through oceans of suffering
Climb to the falls of Dragon Gate
Become
Transform from Koi into a beast
Dragon
