I Am Not Done Yet
I have died a thousand times but I am not dead yet
I have been buried a hundred times with padlocks hanging around my tomb
sealed off in a golden glass coffin with a sign on top which reads
"Having a long rest don't disturb"
but every time I break the glass and continue on my destined path
I have been cursed a million times but I am not cursed yet
A million daggers has been thrown from different angles at me
But each time ten million angels rushed to protect me
I will live a thousand years more so don't come screaming at my door
I will run a thousand more miles so don't be surprised
Ten million more will woo me but I know for sure that none of them is worthy
So you see none of this mombo jumbo doesn't affect me
But don't be surprised when I wake up from my long deserved rest
and take my rightful place in history
Then the entire world will wake up with me
and celebrate this long-awaited victory.
I am not done yet!
