stone that the builder refused

The inspiration
That made lady sing the blues

the spark that makes your idea bright
The same spark
that lights the dark
So that you can know your left from your right

The bullet in your gun
The inner glow that lets you know
To call your brother son
The story that just begun
The promise of what's to come

I am the stone that the builder refused
I am the visual
The inspiration
That made lady sing the blues
