you take all the broken pieces and start again
build from the ground up
brick by brick, wall to wall
construction is never easy of course
you'll fall a few times
or you may bruise your bones a little bit
breathe in, and breathe out
rest for a moment when it's necessary
Rome wasn't built in a day
remember to replenish your body
when you're out of energy
you can not rush progress
if you're too focused  on the results
you'll miss every step wondering
why you're not moving
regardless of the pain, keep building yourself
beautiful cities are also built on ruins
i believe people are the same way too
there is renewal after destruction
