One Day

one day the sun lifted into the sky.
as the rays of shine skipped,
and drifted by.
i was lifted high.
to open my eyes.
not ten seconds old,
as i witness my demise.
we're all born to die.
so dont morn and cry.
one mans fall, 
is another mans rise.
in the world of the upperhand.
you have to listen, and understand.
and not fall for the damn disguise.
i here the call of the wise.
through my ears .
its so clear ,
it brings tears,
to the balls of my eyes.
im not here to fear my ride.
im here to shift gears,
and just steer and drive.
i stand alone.
defending my home.
against all of your lies.
i was made to fly.
through my dreams
i spread my wings and fly.
put on my hat,
pat your back,
then i'm saying goodbye.
cause the suns gonna rise,
then its gonna fall.
bringing darkness to the sky,
to divide us all.
keep a spark in your eyes,
rise, and stand tall.
cause live or die,
this endless ride
can't kill us all
