A Word To the Burdened
Escape the chains that rob you so
for your story that has gone untold
the pain you felt, the lies you fold
the scares you bare, the hate you hold
Fore the strength in you, that you confine
remains hidden deep down somewhere inside
can crush that strife, you try to hide
you have the will, just find the pride
break the shackles that bind your mind
for faith to overcome will come in time
leave your life of woes behind
to live in darkness, greatest of crimes
enter the light, let it blind your eyes
embrace your past, find compromise
for what does not kill you, feeds your resolve
and no longer will you be at odds
but above your hardships, day to day
escape the chains, stop running away
