'the White Flag Won'T Be Waved'

I'm on the mental battlefield, my pen is my sword

Giving up now is what I simply cannot afford

I'm gathering momentum, I'm picking up pace

For a while I was second but I'm now in first place

There will be no retreat, the white flag won't be waved

I've helped so many people but I have so many more to save

I offer heart, I offer strength and I also offer fight

Take my hand and join my side, let's head towards the light

Where you find yourself right now, I have been there too

If you work hard you see results, I found this to be true

Everything I do, I do for my partner and my son

It's up to me to protect them both, they are the bullets in my gun

I'm a viking, a soldier, a warrior at war

I have a blueprint for survival and it contains no flaws

I've spent time in the trenches, i was planning my survival

The day i ran over no man's land was when my strength made its arrival

I don't settle for mediocrity, second best simply will not do

I believe that we all deserve to be happy, this is my personal view

To my peers I want to leave them this piece of advice

Do not be hateful, be kind and be nice
