A War cry of Tenacity
A War cry of Tenacity Too many dreams yet to be realized Too many desires yet to be known Too many failures yet to be attempted Too many successes yet to be achieved I cannot settle I will not settle for less Too many battles to hold back the tears Too many fights to endure the moment Too many struggles to survive the abuse Too many wars to keep my life I cannot settle I will not settle for less Too many times being viewed as a freak Too many times not being seen at all Too many time being misunderstood Too many times going without I cannot settle I will not settle for less Too much love held in restraint Too much passion imprisoned within Too much kindness waiting to be served Too much strength waiting to be lent I cannot settle I will not settle for less Though the loneliness eats at me like cancer and the pain consumes me like the burning bush Though loneliness plagues me like ten thousand boils and depression torments me like a restless ghost Though heartbreak guard my soul like a mother her cub and despair encapsulates me like a prison its inmate Though confusion fits me like the comfort of an old shoe And heartache accompanies me like a loyal friend This I vow to remember I cannot settle I will not settle for less |
