The photos on the wall Told a story triggered memories Worlds came together Others fell apart for a reason New beginnings focused Opened my mouth full of hope Everything came crashing down Had my plans but derailed by others Will find a way still determined The flame will continue to burn Been stopped down and out There's a better world out there Then reality would strike me hard Stood tall kept pushing against the bad Trucking forward to do good be better Wasn't ready but made an effort Wanted it more than the rest tired of settling The oldest set the bar no one stepped up Went into the world lived for me Love home but it's never going to change
