Long Road

It's been a long road my feet are so worn
I thirst I ache my knees begin to shake
Still I carry on. Going to make my home
In a better place gone slay my demons face
To face. Pick up the pieces of my broken faith
Put them back together in this brand new space,
My dreams were big but my bridge to small I've tested
My resolve. It's been a long road I've traveled many miles
To start all over this I swear I will not fail my dreams to mighty
For another hellish fight I've built my own road paved in gold this is
my prize this is my rise.
