Stretching my arching legs, so much exhaustion
Many a long mile I have been,

To cross the seas, to face the test.
Denial comes brisk, no hero here
To dare grave risk,...

Purposely, intentionally
enter out my reluctance and enter in a nose dive back into the past
a Samurai Jack experience

Leaps above noise

On things to do or places to hide.
