Life's Battle Cry

Should I show you
what it's like to be
in my shoes?
When you play the game
you're always gonna lose.
Happiness is just a word.
Not matter what you do,
you'll always end up hurt.
Emotions will scar you,
up until the point 
you wanna die.
Just be strong 
in everything you do,
show the world
your battle cry!
Never give up the fight,
just keep going 
until you hear the trumpet sound.
Then rise up into the sky,
you've finally made it
to the Holy ground.
