The Power Within Your Mind

This lost dark feeling of sin
Like being dropped in a vast ocean
Everything splashes around me
I float down, unable to see
The place I want to be
Is this gods will or a test?
Because if it is
I'll try harder than the rest
With an earth shattering roar
I disperse the water
Able to see the shore
Claw my way through the mud
And pick myself up from the rough
I control my life
No matter how much stress
No matter how much pain
The aura around me repels it all
Blowing winds from my soul
Widening my eyes and heart
Covering my skin in steel
Clenching my fists into hammers
And smirking my lip into confidence
Furrowing my brow into determination
Straightening my crooked back into power
Unslumping my shoulders
Forcing my legs into a confident stride
And at this point I fly from the earth
Leaving all the pain behind
As I swallow the sun
And bring some clouds back with me
So I'll always have my own shelter
And my own light
To always guide me.
