sometimes, life moves faster than i can,
and i get left behind.
i become a spectator to my own life,
watching and waiting.
wondering and hoping,
that maybe it will slow down.
But it begins to move faster,
i get left farther behind.
Suddenly, my life is out of my hands.
and into YOURS.

I'm not very emotional.
My words seem to never work.
but when I'm with you.
it all makes sense.

emotions are meant to be shared
and words are meant to be heard.
and you are there..
Feeling and listening.
they way, no one else ever has.

so now my words have meaning.
and my emotions have meaning.
because of you.

So lift your chin up babe.
because you complete me

you were just one man.
jailed for infinity.
you never bent.
stronger than steel.

oppressed from day one.
segregated by your skin.
you were never broken.
stronger than steel.

the odds were against you.
against your entire race.
your faith never wavered.
stronger than steel.

i walked where you laid.
where you eat, where you ran.
your land gave me strength.
stronger than steel.

your love was so unending.
your hate, no where to be found.
you saved a who nation.
stronger than steel.

Madiba. Madiba.
Nelson Mandela
the original superman.
Stronger then Steel.
