Theres a strain in my heart it yet cannot be understood
For a strange reason I find myself looking towards you
Lately confused, not thinking so straight
In this world of such matters, i like to see what is great
An experience once remembered relates to what I need
If it means digging old truths ill do that indeed
A battle you fought to secure our lives
To teach us a lesson I thought was out of strife
Fearless you were, honour brought to name
Honour we have now, it can’t be the same?
In admiration we take, fail to set the same
Abandon your works that was fought for aim
The martyr of my life I must follow
All this time I believed for the immoral
When you, beyond surfaces suffered in what we see as sorrow
It wasn’t out of wretched it was protection
The title given, stronger than confrontation
I was weak at mind but you where never weak at all
And weep hapless, no excuse, petty flaws
Your heroism brings tears to my eyes
To understand the depth of your life words cannot describe
Even ready to risk your life? That gives me butterflies
Strength we must attain to build upon the future
Misguided daughter will never forget what you have taught her
Living through a soul, a changed perception
Promises now its not deception
This must be why I can feel the burns you felt on your skin
Through my heart I feel it…now I must go on to win
