Surviving

[Intro fade in] [Spoken word] Thank you. For being you. For having the strength to overcome. All challenges. All opposition. You really are worth it. [Cinematic build up] [Verse 1] [Spoken word] Thank you. For surviving. You've given me hope where all else failed. You've become a role model to many, a friend to many. You show strength in spirit, body, mind. For this, I will always be grateful. You show us every day that you are, what you said you'd be. What you spoke to yourself in the mirror, facing fear, doubt, troubles, threats. [Chorus] To be, Or not to be. Stay close to me, Stay a while and see, That we are here today. Surviving. [Soft progressive lead] [Gentle build up] [Staccato breakdown] [Peaceful break] [Verse 2] [Spoken Word] Thank you for taking care of yourself. For being there for others. For being there, For you. Thank you for the effort you put into Yourself. Your goals. Your progress. Your ambitions. Your dreams. Thank you for the commitment, To making your life a more positive one. To endure the hard times, with laughter. With joy. [Peaceful drop] [Cinematic build up] [Break] Thank you. [Cinematic build up 2] [Overwhelming drop] [Cinematic build up] [Emotional drop] [Outro] [Verse 3] Thank you, for smiling. Thank you, for caring. For yourself and others. For the world we walk on, and for the world it will one day be. [Outro 2] [Spoken Word] Ancestors smile on you. May you walk with the light of us all. [End]
