Eyes Forward

It's not the placid sea, that makes a sailor skilled

Nor the temperate breeze, that causes blood to chill

So it has been learned, retold and carried on

From noblest of rank, to lonesome vagabond

Fear not the quaking earth, nor the blackened sky

Silence tempting voice, that begs you not to try

For every storm shall end, and writhing flames will die

Stand defiant once again, and hold your chin up high

For you were meant to rise, through every trial known

With the weight of your success, carried in every bone.
