I Will Rise Again

I WILL RISE AGAIN I could never be defeated I have hope inside my soul My throne I will be seated As I remain in total control Whispered words beguile But inside my heart glows Gone are words you revile My body takes your blows I have soothed the demon Lay to rest all of my ghosts Lay waste others scheming Sworn not to other’s oaths In death, I will be anointed In prayers, I will be blessed My fame thus be appointed My sins more as confessed My heart was made of iron Although it shall never rust Nor melted in the hot pyre Buried with me in this dust It shall rest for many a year Before I rise again on earth To rise again as a true Amir To a new nation in its birth Indiana Shaw . . . -_-
