Resilience

Round and round I go

You circling as you show

What you are made of

And you ain’t a dove

You’re throwing me into your pit

You’re nothing but a piece of shit

Good thing, too

I learned from you

That flowers grow best in shit

Banging my head against a wall

Feeling like I’m going to fall

I want to give up

I’ve have enough

But I’ve got to move on

Because I know I am strong

Good thing, too

I learned from you

That flowers grow best in shit

Living day to day

Feeling like I can’t pay

Struggling is hard work

And the monster lurks

But I sit and I smile

Because it’s not an inch but a mile

Good thing, too

I learned from you

That flowers grow best in shit

Now I laugh in relief

Because I no longer feel grief

I feel like I can fly

Like bird in the sky

Because the path that you lit

Showed me flowers grow best in shit
