Despite All Pressure

Despite all pressure
I have myself to blame 
If I ever give up 
I will never be buried 
With this winds of failures
I will never go with 
This sea of disappointment
I refuse to say never 
Cos I will never give up
Despite all pressure

Despite all pressure 
Life is not a bed of roses 
So am sure I have to stand tall 
So I chose awareness 
Instead of fear 
Tell me what more 
I will I lose 
If I lose my focus 
I chose to be who 
I am 
And I chose to win 
Despite all  pressure

Despite all pressure 
My destiny speak 
Despite the Strom's 
Of life 
My faith works despite 
The delays of life 
My hard work will always
Pay me good despite the haters 
After the all the rains of life 
My sun will surely shine 
Despite all pressure.

A dedication to ebuka Nnoli
