On The Other Side

The scars and the bruises are starting to show

And getting back up from the blows takes much longer

But I’m still here and still kind of standing

I won’t let this world take me down quite that easily

Set the bones, bandage wounds, patch myself up as needed

Get it all back together as best as I can

Bace myself for the next wave of blows and oppression

Turn this face of stone to the struggles at hand

It’s far too late now to give up or give in

I’ll weather the storm far as long as it takes

To see the sunlight hiding on the other side
