I carved my place in history I heard the beating drum I listened to the rapid beat That could get loud for some It gets my juices flowing It invigorates my soul And then before you know it I’ve completely lost control If I remain cool, calm, and collected Or if push comes to shove The beating drum goes silent When you lose someone you love But the echoes, they last forever Though the memories may fade And thoughts, they get forgotten So cherish those you’ve saved
