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 The PO£T
