Be Not Afraid

No walls then, of persuasion
Can ever hold me back
I’ll persevere, I’ll make it clear
I’ll forge ahead, attack

I’ll never back down, cower
I’ll stand and be so proud
I say it now, that somehow
I’ll rise above the clouds

Stand up then, be with me
Let’s walk together strong
I promise this, for us exists
A future that is long
