The UnbreakableHe was a kind hearted man in a hateful worldWho caught every thing that life ever hurled Like the oldest fucking mountain he always stood so tall Forever showing what it means to be unbreakable Paycheck to paycheck, 3 jobs a day He's the ransom for his family's pain In the coldest world with the warmest heart He puts to shame what you consider hard He's the man you don't see in the mirror While the world was screaming death He chose a different song to hear He's the band that's playing While the ship sinks The song of hope, he forever sings He taught the sun to shine Now please teach this "son" to shine How can this world never break Your warm heart in this frigid fucking place? You're like the river: always flowing And growing, never changing; rearranging How can this world always never take Your solid stance in these turbulent time? You're like the tree in the burning forest That never was burned down And what he said to me was this "Just love the world that won't love you back" Old man look at my life I'm nothing like you are Take a look at my life I'm so very fucking far From the person I aspire to be Unbreakable |
