I need a witness, today I become a manTonight I will end thisEnduring, inhaling, waiting on this tide to come inThese waves keep tormenting, crashing down on everything I have leftBarely able to withstand the pressure of life's cascading testsWith passion I pursueEager to conquer I still push onWith passion I pursueWell I'm an open book, still pushing onI'm just waiting on that splash of fresh airSomething to ease life's heavy loadThat relinquishing last breathJust to know that I made it past another dayJust to know that I made it there unscathedAn empty barren carcass, armed with a mindWith ambition for victory, I confideTo encourage, invoking all that's inside(repeat)I prevail over every wicked bitter thing you've saidWe, we prevail, mere champions among menFinally I can breathe againMy lungs no longer filled with disbeliefThis lighthouse still guiding me homeI can breathe againWE WITHSTOOD, WE DEFEATED, WE HELD OUR GROUNDNo longer choking on failure's thick heavy scent,WE MOVE ONTired but still prepared, eyes ahead, no turning backI prevail over every wicked bitter thing you've saidWe, we prevail, mere champions among men
