[Verse]
A random roach motel’s bedside table
Therein lies the key to my master plan
Brown and leather-bound, beside the Bible
Inscribed under the title, it says, “Placed by The King of Salem”
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m spreading the word, just like a Gideon
An alchemist in the lull
Trying to turn leaden souls into gold
[Verse]
Coelho’s masterwork
Santiago’s fable
Left inside the nightstand
Room after room before the unsuspecting eyes
Of mourning sleepers
Should they look inside
They’ll find their dream is alive
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m spreading the word, just like a Gideon
A word I’m hoping they’ll learn
And the word is inspiration
[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m leading a legion
I’ll be the white feather catalyst calling ‘em to unlock their desires
When you follow your legend, all the universe conspires to attain it
[Break]
All you need is a spark
An inspirational thought
For the flame of fulfillment to start
All you need is a spark
For the flame of fulfillment to start
[Verse]
Because the world is brimming full of sullen wanderers
Dragging their feet through their self-imposed exiles
Buckling under the weight
Of their growing fear to fail
Feeling gray and aged—and hard to wake
[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m leading a legion
I’ll be the white feather catalyst calling ‘em to unlock their desires
When you follow your legend, all the universe conspires to attain it
[Break]
All you need is a spark
An inspirational thought
For the flame of fulfillment to start
[Bridge]
The years pass and I’m carrying out my plan
I find myself in a room I’ve never been
I open the drawer to find the good book’s already inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Someone’s spreading the word
(All you need’s a spark)
Just like the King of Salem
(Inspirational thought)
Another Alchemist in the lull
(Turn leaden souls to gold)
Proving there’s a spark and the flame’s ‘bout to come
[Outro]
We’re spreading the word
Just like the King of Salem
A word we’re hoping you’ll learn
And the word is inspiration
And the word is inspiration
And the word is inspiration
