My ignorance
was more than just a hinderance,
but a death sentence that brought about
no deliverance only a loss of one’s
innocence in this all out fight of
malevolence without forgiveness there’s
got to be a heaven, because hell is what
I’m living.
I became the catalyst,
Mr. Atlas with the weight of the world
on my back, while carrying a sack
full of troubles searching for answers
finding nothing, but more struggles
and bloody knuckles.
Now I fight
cause I choose to NO
one to lose to, the truth
is it has always been you
against you, so lets do
something new like turning a
vice into a virtue, sorry did I
confuse you.
Then let me bring you
up to speed in other words
ignorance is no longer my reed.
One step, one punch,
one day at a time
mountains of trials and
tribulations I climb. Hand
over hand and if I fall then
I crawl until I stand again.
Where the dramas of life never
end, but forced to bend yet
never to break in a world of
problems I can’t escape.
So, I fight to fight
the good fight with all
my might to life myself
out of the murky waters
of fright into the streams
of hallows light in the fight
of my life.
