Greatness Never Seen
Greatness is never offered to just anyone
Only few are given the chance to see the sun
On the day I pass away don't blame me I couldn't stay
Don't fret don't sob don't blink an eye
But if you do I won't ask you why
You never gave a chance to see the pain inside feasts away inside me
Everyday I wish to see their face yet close my eyes and their every place
Every time I swear I see them true hoping dearly they may see me too
More and more each day I cry falsely hoping the pain may die
People believe all they wish to hear to make their own lives feel better through the year
The time is close I feel its near the time to end what I can't see here
If greatness truly is real then tell me why can't I find the ability to heal
Never fret no do not doubt and never believe all what you hear about
Even if you do choose to tell me I'm great I know it's false as I demand my fate
Soon so soon I will see them again bit not in this world where I loved till the end
So to the world in which I came close my eyes and hang see their greatness will remain
