time

I am the breath of life in everyone If not for me there would be nothing new In present, past, and future I can run Under my protection is where earth grew If I where not here nothing would begin I can be evil but also be kind I crumble mountains then build them again When looking at me you're looking behind I can destroy life with the touch of death I am the destruction of everything I can make you cold by stealing your breath However large, I can bring down the king I can be different but also a rhyme i am for eternity, I am time.
