I have seen the best of them
fall short on their own convictions.
seeking the truth in the darkest corners
of this crooked world.

weakened bodies, polluted minds,
broken dreams is all they?ll find.
troubled souls. heavy hearts.
all torn apart. must stand the test of time.

won?t let the weight of these violent times
pull me down under the surface
to view the world from the bottom
of a lifeless ocean.
can?t run from this fight.
must stand the test of time.
