Beyond the dreams of the world
lives a flame that flickers
with hope.

Upon the path we cling
onto the dreams our parents
wished for us.

The rope is always ready,
you just have to grab it
tightly and allow it to pull
you up to higher ground.

These walls we’ve built
are not eternal but the
love will be left behind
in the ruble.

The devil comes only
in weakness for he’s
a coward and a lazy
monster. He knows how
to break your meditation,
boil your thoughts until
they are ashes, damage
your faith and worship.

But it’s up to you if
the devil breaks your
heart and soul, for
with the LORD comes
strength, and mercy,
eternal life, and guidance
from his council.
