I am Down
I am Up
Murdered and Born-Again
I am a Mud-Covered and Silver-Lining Soul
Unnoticed and Six Feet Tall
Never Worth Fighting For -Oh, The Rubies I Hold!
Who Am I
I am Down
I am Up
Murdered and Born-Again
I am a Mud-Covered and Silver-Lining Soul
Unnoticed and Six Feet Tall
Never Worth Fighting For -Oh, The Rubies I Hold!
Who Am I
Deciding this morning whether
I roar, whilst in David’s clothing
An Amazon, though oh-so-small
Ought, by the world’s measure, back down
But no
I take aim
You play the unwinable game
The ground, you roam
The fall, your home
The dirt your resting place
The sting is not going away
But you will reshape this
You will
Someday
Something like rings inter-looped
Victory between your teeth
I wonder was he
there, The dark, at life’s first cry.
‘Twas eve, afterall.
What more did you foresee my sweet
What I would burn
As the early sun hiding shone on nonetheless
Was it a known or a guess
Say how you strived to see to the future
This humble talk
I am owed your victorious regale
For so long for certain
It’s been about
Getting up, up, off, off the mat
Jabbing when you must
Ducking if you need
Floating on your toes
Staying off your heels
Yet now I am certain
This looks like a draw
Or someone’s else’s bout
I’m calling it
Strutting from the ring
Still on my game
Setting sweet lyrics to the tone of the bell
