Lift me up

As the trouble begins, I” ll be our eyes and see over the chaos and get us both to safety.

As we stand in another battle we didn’t volunteer for.

We need luck and hope and wits to get out of this one and show them yet again we can come through it all.

And maybe this time, those who fall around us won’t haunt us as we close our eyes each night to sleep.

And as we wake up, we must remember we will do it all again as we are the slave of the man, and we do as he says.

Until we gain our freedom again and see the ones, we love and left behind.
