Ascension - Trial

…And driven towards ascension from the ashes of the past

With these words as a foundation and the future here at last

I have risen from my knees and won’t again be beaten down

To just crumble at your feet and

Surrender values I’ve cherished all along

Convictions grow stronger everyday

Because I know who I am and that’s not changing

I’ll live by my word and always strive to respect

And those who understand will stand by my side

My dedication is a bond secured by trust

Which often doesn’t seem to some to mean that much

But I am grasping at a vision of what this life means to me

And in the light of these who don’t seem to care

I refuse to stand back and just let it fade

Convictions grow stronger everyday

Because I know who I am and that’s not changing

To those who live by their word and always strive to respect

When all is said and done I’ll stand by your side

Reaching higher always striving towards ascension
