Soul Engraved
God Forbid
And in the end I'll rise
Endured the event that should have been my demise
Looking forward to new life, my second chance
In a candid instance I witness life flash before my eyes
My sense of purpose is encouraged by my will to survive
Looking past that day toward my future
What will it be
Knowing what must be done
And it shows my seams are frayed
Give me the strength
Strength to face the day
My soul has been engraved, give me
The strength to make this change
Battered and torn from a selfless act
My spirit not broken
I'm back with a vengeance, fists clenched
To grasp this destiny
My will to conquer all
Understanding of what I must do
