Rebirth - Gershon Kingsley, First Moog Quartet

I was a star

when the earth came to light

I was the stone

that gave birth to the knife

I was a tree

and a thing from the sea

all of these things are part of me

Born and reborn

in a master design

I was a bird

and a beast with an instict devine

Ah — but now I’m a man

and I’m wondering just who I am,

as I try,

— try to fit into the plan

Star, let glow

with the light I once knew

Stone, lend me strength,

for there’s much I must do.

Tree let me grow

and the sea set me free

for all of you are part of me.

Bird, give me flight

of the mind when I dreampt

Beast show me how

when I find that I have to adapt

In this lost race of man

let me draw from all that I’ve been,

that I may find my place in the plan.
