When misery is coming your way Down sit back and wait for the dawning of a new day Face your fears and don't back down Maintain your composure my son Rise up, and always stand your ground There's always going to be sorrow But you can't always rely on waiting for tomorrow You never know when you or I might die But you will always have my hand in d**h To hold yours and draw the proper path I don't want to leave you now, but I'll wait still Before time makes us part and forever closes our fate I can see your suffering and about to break But hold me dear and I promise you'll always be safe Sometimes it seems the world is out to get you And there's little hope of getting away But stand tall and above the crowd And find that someone that makes your day If you have to commit with someone to save yourself Make sure its liable and never do it to please someone else You can walk alone through empty streets But you do it for sympathy from the shadows lurking behind you Look through the windows with your weeping eyes You weren't called to live someone else's life You've been beat down Thrown down Spat upon Rise my friend and you will see The empty terror drowns itself inside of me When life's as empty as a forgotten tunnel The promises always seem to fade away Hold your breath while we part ways my son Hold your pride even in places where you don't belong You've been mutilated for far too long Take pride, before it's gone Move on and forever you'll live on
