Yet you stand

Sacha Karam

It's only been a few month in 2023
And so many people decided to be escapees
From this world and I'm so tired of this society
That decided to oversee, this shambling turn of events
As just many casualties
Oh I'm sorry I don't know how to step where it's all glittery
All my life the paths I've taken were all bloody
Full of gut decision making
Never had time to be pretty
Though always made sure to leave a lasting
Impression on whoever talked to me
Dispensing the according knowledge
As one grasps tightly the edge
Before making a mistake
As they misstep
In the void of the unknown
Paranoid of the untold
Destroyed to the core they owned
It's high time
It's the end of the mind heist
And today is the end of the line
Of this entire timeline
Twisted reality with no rewind
Derelict shells of mankind
Scared of what they've found
Standing now on high ground
And will be praying for redemptions
As they realized that they were preying on me
Rationalized by pure folly and realistic perceptions
They'll get back when it'll be time for the grand finale
Quite wicked thoughts
And nothing to stop them off
Anything to add before I go all out
Once again will you force me to make you shut it out
Cause trust me I'm currently in quite the deep
Yeah quite the dip
If you ask me
I won't back down till I burn it all to the pit
There will be no wax left, only my spirit
Will remain and I'll make sure to make it
You have no right to tell me I've not thrived
Through all this I've tried
Oh so many times oh please don't lie
Oh right I'm a nobody but check for yourself I've strived
To experience a reality so prized
Don't look at me so surprised with those blatant eyes
It's high time
It's the end of the mind heist
And today is the end of the line
Of this entire timeline
Yeah life gets better
Don't ever lose that fiery desire
That flame in your chest trying to get burnt out from your endeavor
Acquired in the hand of higher Aether
Under some wicked pressure
And was promised at the end of the day some kind of treasure
But all this blether wasn't worth the measure
Even the grim reaper now feared to sever
My whole existence sharper than her scythe
As she realized no one could smother my inner myth
And today I stand, still here, breathing, and encouraging
You people who are listening that it'll be okay
Your efforts are not worthless, it will pay
Things got better if you get to hear these shots I'm having in life
So please don't ever lose hope in this hellish place
Pursue that dream of yours but be careful on your chase
Trust me it's no race but only a matter of pace
Don't worry you're not late
If you got so far then try to embrace
Your very own existence that in no case could be ever replaced
Accept your deepest fears
And come out with yourself
And open up your ears
Open up your heart and your reason
Open up after your confession in tears
All I want for anyone is to find some relief
In this life in which the tides turn so quick
So if my music helps someone to keep 'em wick
Then I hope that you won't become someone I have to grief
And I'm not sure myself, but as long you're willin'
To get back up and climb the stairs one more time
Someday you'll realize how far you've been travelin'
Put everything on the line
Set ablaze every single fiber of your being
To go against the tides
And ignite your narration
From now on only affirmations
AND YET YOU STAND DESPITE EVERYTHING
Yet you stand
In the face of adversity
Such a gritty soul
No one can control
Even on the brink of chaos when tides rise up
That no one is supposed to withstand
Yet you stand
No one can see you deep down the rabbit hole
And yet you don't fold under your toll
I'm sure you're trying your hardest to not be breaking
Just like life wants you to be crumbling
AND YET YOU STAND
Working and grasping the reality in which all your dreams are achieved
Going against the whims of society not deceived
As you ignite the writings of your own story
