Bliss
Paul Gilbert Lyrics

I am a mountain
I am strong and tall, unmovable and resilient.

I stand a mile high
I am towering, lofty, and hard to conquer.

Free and I'm all alone
I am independent, self-sufficient, and self-contained, not bound by anyone else's rules or constraints.

You never slow down
You are always rushing, hectic, and in a hurry, never taking time to appreciate the beauty that surrounds you.

You want to know me
You are curious about me, intrigued by my mystery and potential.

But don't lose your way to go
Don't get lost in your own confusion or disorientation, stay focused and motivated to achieve your goal.

I am the green forest, desert sand
I am nature, diverse, and vast, both lush and arid.

Deep valley's the palm of my hand
I hold the world in my grasp, with valleys and peaks molded by my touch.

If you dare, climb on top
If you have the courage, scale my heights and discover my beauty and majesty.

When you make it up
Once you have reached the pinnacle, achieved your goal, and attained your aspiration,

Just don't look down
Don't let fear or uncertainty distract you or cloud your vision.

Don't look down
Keep your focus, determination, and resolve steady and firm.

Look up or look around
Look at the magnificent view and enjoy the splendor around you.

Look out!
Be aware and cautious of your surroundings, mindful of danger and threats.

I am a river
I am flowing, dynamic, constantly changing, and evolving.

Running deep and wide
My expanse covers great distances and my depth reaches unknown territories.

Strong wind blows over me
I am affected by external factors, but maintain my course and direction despite obstacles and challenges.

Yeah you can jump in
You can join me, experience my currents and movements at your own risk.

But take a warning
Be mindful of my power and the risks associated with my movement.

My arms reach out to sea
My flow travels long distances, connecting to the vastness of the ocean.

I am the deep ocean, silver moon
I represent the mysteries of the sea, calm and tranquil in the light of the moon.

High tide that comes too soon
My power is unpredictable and forces beyond human control.

Sea serpents swim below
Creatures of the deep exist in my depths, making my realms even more mysterious and fascinating.

Yeah, you'll never know
The vastness of me and my secrets make my depths impenetrable and unknowable.

I am the air that you are breathing
I sustain and support life, providing the essentials for survival and growth.

The one who's holding up your plane
I help you soar, I keep your aircraft airborne and successful in your journey.

You brought a chute, and now you're jumping out
But you are willing to risk it all, facing the unknown with bravery and resilience.

Space rockets going to Mars
I represent the evolution of humanity, pushing its limits to explore the universe beyond us.

Keep riding to the stars
Continue your journey with all the determination, perseverance, and resolve you have.

Leave ignorance on the ground
Don't be held captive by the limitations of the past, embrace new knowledge and experiences.

Still bliss is around
Despite the hurdles that lie ahead, euphoria and joy await you.

And now you find
After all your hard work and endurance,

It blows your mind
The magnitude of the beauty and wonder of this world is overwhelming and awe-inspiring.

One giant leap for mankind
We have achieved something great, and taken humanity to new heights of understanding and growth.

All right!
It's time to celebrate this milestone with enthusiasm, excitement, and wonder.
