SOMETHING SO STRONG


 For so long now a crushing pain, out of darkness, 
 I find my way,

 The sky I see above, rests over the mountain I 
 Must climb.

 A glow of light finds' me as I make my way up the 
 Endless giant,

 There's a faith that guides,' I am not afraid fore 
 Many will stand with me.

 Inside this body lives a spirit of neverending fight 
 For survival,

 Something so strong, It conquers' the force of doubt 
 In another man.

 I may not reach the top but I will try, I will get  
 There, i'll touch the sky,

 Lost was I this man of many sorrows,' a change In myself 
 Is discovered.

 Such a long road on my own to follow, travel It with me 
 Now and forever,

 I've seen the mountain, I've climbed high with blood 
 And pain, To the top.

 Many have come to watch my flight from the mornings' 
 Light into the dark,

 With me they stood strong, they helped me climb when 
 I weakened.

 Something so strong as I would not fall, their strength 
 Gave me courage,

 The mountain still stands,' again I will climb stronger 
 Each time.
