We stand

We stand
As if this could change us
Our roots are deeper than that
Born and bred the masters of
Ourselves
And of our hearts
Take the best of me and
Watch my world fall apart
Still I remain steadfast in my heart

Walk a darkened road and
We will be our own light
Our foundation our core is strong
Stand for what's right
We stand again, it breaks my heart
The anger burns and I fall apart
Seasons change me,
But they won't change my core
I have struggled I've fought for less
Still this I know
Belief within my self
Shall drive me further on
Still I fear that the past remains
And so shall I
