We will uphold you, we will light your way,
Till we drive out all negativity, we will stay, they say.
They light my way, they ease my path,
They save me from self inflicted wrath
Like two headlights of a car,
they shine their lights on my path.
Look forward, always the way ahead see
What’s gone cannot be corrected,
Erase it from memory.
They hold my hand, they opine
And in relentless thirst I long, I pine
For what is lost, what once was mine.
Mine in me, now eroded over time,
Trapped as I was in hostile climes.
We will uphold you, we will light your way,
Drive out the negative, bring positives to stay.
I have no first family, to fall back upon,
A girl adrift at sea; lonely, forlorn.
Parted from what was really mine,
They come and a light they shine.
We will uphold you we will light the way,
Drive out the negative, till positives are here to stay.
I know it in my heart, they are
Well wishers of mine.
We will uphold you we will
Restore your shine.
Just go ahead and show up,
Know clearly your path,
Don’t look back, forever forward
Steadfast, with clear intentions march.
I heave my self up, it’s been far too long
That I’ve stood up for myself, not swayed
Seek not a crutch, no external touch
Dust off the past, pain cannot be allowed to stay.
We will uphold you, we will light a shine on your way,
Now you’re up and you’re strong,
We must carry on and go our way.
