The Victory In Defeat

There’s always a victory, no matter the outcome For the victory in defeat is where character’s from Some, see it differently, but me I particularly, Would much rather be, the kind that takes lightly, the curves Thrown by life, throughout the day and the nights Whether its dark of its light, I keep my pride My dignity, justified, but still inside, there’s a war raging On the outside, things are moving feelings constantly changing The choices we are facing, make us stronger by the minute The decisions that we make are lead by the internal spirit You feel it and believe it, no matter what it may say Guiding our hearts through the hardships of each day Forever there’s anger, but through the spirit, it slowly fades away And makes happiness stay, unexpectedly, the joy strays And again, the anger replays Despite war and anger, the spirit is strong The very thing that keeps us holding on Holding tight, the character it unfolds The pride defeat brings, loud and so bold
