Perseverance

Isn't it such a big word

Lost in our lazy, selfish world

Simply meaning to stay in the race

Keeping running no matter the pace

Persevere, keep going on

Don't stop at all keep going strong

No matter what life throws at you

You keep going strong, no matter what it will put you through

It may keep you up at night crying

Sometimes you may feel like dying

You just cry, cry and let it out

Never, ever get a doubt

Doubt you are not strong

'Cause only the brave know its not wrong

Not wrong to fall into tears sometimes

Wanting to run away from the high tides

Only the strong know

That sometimes you have to break down and let go

Let go all the pain and sorrow

Gaining enough strength to face tomorrow.

Because at the end of the day

You're left alone, while others might get to play

You alone feel the pain, hurt and burden

Only you are left to feel uncertain

Uncertain about life, uncertain about death

About right and wrong, about the reward and the wealth

But yet still you wake up the next day

Ready to go again without complain

You persevere, you keep strong with every try

Because you know one day God will answer your cry

You face your problems everyday

You persevere, you be brave, and you stay

Even though every blue moon you wonder... Why

You then begin to cry

You persevere and dry your eyes

You look past the pain, deceit and lies

And you find your strength

That perseveres you to the END!...
