Embrace the Night Rest
Do away with everything that gives you stress
Tomorrow will be another day to press
Embrace the night with great delight
As it comes usually to pause your fight
John works so hard he doesn't believe in rest
Even in dead night he dares to climb on Everest
In his prime he died of cardiac arrest
Below the earth where he's laid to rest
He can't dare aspire to leave the nest
For those who think less of rest
There's a silence that characterizes the night
So powerful that it invigorates the brain
Rain or shine the night is a confidant and won't cause a drain
Each and everyday there's a loan to pay
The day is a loanshark where you get an oker of dismay
If you go through each and everyday
Without rest in the night you'll become gray
