I AM STRONG


I am strong

Not in physical means

In willpower and mentality

Begging to live my dreams

Many hardships have come and flown my way

There were times i didn't know if i would walk away the same

Angels told me to stand my ground

They say the universe will know my name.

So I take control of my life

I focus my drive on my future of dreams

Blocking out the nay-tellers and demons

of which, rip apart the seams.

Because I am strong

Not by physical means,

but in willpower and mentality

I will live my dreams.
