Immortal

I say, After stumbling and a fall; ‘I fell to rise up ‘ So I rise up As if nothing happened, Limping as I go I refuse to be grounded. I say, After having a bad day; ‘I survived this one to see better days ‘ So I sleep the bad experiences off my mind Looking forward to a new day, Soldiering on as I go I refuse to be held back. I say, When betrayed and tormented; ‘this life is to be enjoyed and not endured ‘ So I put myself together for a go Replacing the tears on my face with a smile Letting go as I go I refuse to be traumatized. I say, When fear is gaining ground in me; ‘fear is a sure path to nowhere ‘ So I take extra caution in my attempts Trying as I go, I refuse to be idle. I say, After losing out in a battle; ‘thank God my weaknesses were exposed ‘ So I turn my weaknesses into strengths, Practicing as I go I refuse to be victimized. I say, When faced with challenges in life; ‘the challenge came my way to be overcome ‘ So I tackle the challenges head on, Persevering as I go I refuse to give up on life.
