Doubt
Location
Waking up everyday with the weight of the world on my shoulders
And the face in the mirror getting older
The passion that once soldered me to action getting colder
And less bold, the steps I can't afford to make
Because I gambled on life and never had a chance
The race was fixed and I couldn't dance
Around the mines haphazardly glanced by a chance
And the flag that once shone but now limply dangles
And the pride that once fought, but is poorly mangled
And the legacy that burned so badly to be told
Is now watching herself writing while the doubt takes hold
