Valor
I've been fighting so long
In this awful, ****** war
I'm deeply tired
Wounded, scarred
I want to surrender
The voices screaming
"Give up," "You can't win"
"You'll never escape this"
"You'll never escape us"
I want to surrender
But there's this force within
Keeping me breathing
Swinging my sword
When my own strength fails
I want to surrender
I am reminded by it
That I can't give up now
There are better things coming
My fight cannot end here
I want to surrender
I suppose, there must be
Courage inside of me
Because despite its allure
I have yet to give in
I want to surrender
And it is the act
Of overcoming this desire
That proves to me
I fight with valor
Inspired by Skillet’s “Never Surrender”
