Destruction
Destruction
You have taken aim at me
Green-eyed of my determination
Trapped as if in some third world country
Constantly dodging bullets
Wishing for my down fall
Praying for my Destruction
Only feeds my purpose and willpower
Despite how I’m seen through your eyes
I still strive, struggle, survive
Defy the odds
The last person you’ll find hiding
I was born tough
Evolved to be resilient through this battle
It is only pain ~ I will recover and thrive
Even after torture, neglect, and heartache
So, Plead for my Destruction
It just brings me closer to your defeat
Smile now, believing that victory is yours
I’ll allow you to think you’ve succeeded
Take your best shot by looking up
Because on top is where I’ll be
You’ll never be able to destroy me
