A strike knocks me to the ground
I crawl injured badly
Darkness begins to surround
Hopeless, I fall deeper down
Falling as forever I hit the end
The pain is sufficating, I'm weak
I failed to win the battle
A laugh above mocks me
"Get up" a voice commands
"But why? I'm too weak" I repy
"Get up" it commands once more
The laughter above is deafning
An anger takes ahold, I feel pride
In strength, I get up
Hand by hand I climb the wall
Pushing passed the darkness I rise
Back on my feet I stand
Take another blow
I fall back down the hole
The entrence becomes blocked
I lay consumed in sorrow
"Get up" I hear
Overcomed the pain, I climb
Break through the exit
I rise once more
Took another hit, I fall
The ground consumes me
Wounded I stay down
"Get up"
"Why? I'll forever fall" I say
"Get up" it repeats
Laughter reminds me of my weakness
Anger forms, strength comes
With pride, I rise up
In weakness I fall
With strength I rise
Never give up
The voice reminds me
"Get up"
I crawl injured badly
Darkness begins to surround
Hopeless, I fall deeper down
Falling as forever I hit the end
The pain is sufficating, I'm weak
I failed to win the battle
A laugh above mocks me
"Get up" a voice commands
"But why? I'm too weak" I repy
"Get up" it commands once more
The laughter above is deafning
An anger takes ahold, I feel pride
In strength, I get up
Hand by hand I climb the wall
Pushing passed the darkness I rise
Back on my feet I stand
Take another blow
I fall back down the hole
The entrence becomes blocked
I lay consumed in sorrow
"Get up" I hear
Overcomed the pain, I climb
Break through the exit
I rise once more
Took another hit, I fall
The ground consumes me
Wounded I stay down
"Get up"
"Why? I'll forever fall" I say
"Get up" it repeats
Laughter reminds me of my weakness
Anger forms, strength comes
With pride, I rise up
In weakness I fall
With strength I rise
Never give up
The voice reminds me
"Get up"
