The unbreakable

he was a kind hearted man in a hateful world
who caught every thing that life ever hurled
like the oldest mountain he always stood so tall
forever showing what it means to be unbreakable
paycheck to paycheck
3 jobs a day
he's the ransom for his family's pain
in the coldest world with the warmest heart
he puts to shame what you consider hard
he's the man you don't see
in the mirror
while the world was screaming death
he chose a different song to hear
he's the band that's playing
while the ship sinks
the song of hope
he forever sings
he taught the sun to shine

teach me

can you please teach this "son" to shine

how can this world never break
your warm heart in this frigid [bad word] place
you're like the river
always flowing and growing
never changing rearranging
how can this world
never take
your solid stance in these turbulent time
you're like the tree in the burning forest
that never was burned down

what he said to me was this

just love the world
that won't love you back

old man take look at my life
i'm nothing like you are
take a look at my life
i'm so very [bad word] far
from the person i aspire to be
the person i aspire to be
person i aspire to be

unbreakable
