What Rewards

What Rewards… You know I hear the words As they flow from your lips An uphill climb, but we’ll come from behind If we never quit trying... To understand the root of the problem Is to find the one and only solution The noise is all around me I can’t hear myself think Emotional chains and I can’t break free And physical pain, in my mind I’m on the brink Sink or swim? The bottom line and we’re coming up short I can’t help but wonder about our fate Three sisters in mythology turn into reality They’re leading us through the gate… And salvation is not waiting for us there I’m trying to break away from this From seeds long ago sown in the soil Life is long and if this is the test What rewards for all the toil… What rewards…All the toil…
