Lay Over
I'm at my stop over,
waiting on my next flight
I've been in my pain all the way over
And I have to wait on to continue through the night
My cheek is swollen,
Feels like I was stung
My whole jaw can't open
Having a hard time just to roll my tongue
And this is just a light stop
Over across the many years I've to live
While the one thing that never seems to stop
Is the constant worry of the life I'll have to live
Cause I can't plan too much
Cause my tomorrow isn't given
All I can do as a soldier is march
To keep going at war with my fears and worries till we even
For I need to get to the other side a victor
Walking head high even though the joints,
can't carry my win with me for life without Factor
Has had me beaten to the ground, losing my hope points
