Got To Be Strong

By Llewellyn Douglas

Looking up and saw the sky
From down here its very high
Pride has left me paralyzed
But early enough ive realised

Slowly but surely ill get up
This is reality and no setup
In vain I have been waiting
Wasting years and creating

Doubt bitterness ,hatred and strive
Thank God – I am still alive
In this gutter I will not stay
Im getting up and will be on my way

The one who created the stars and the sky
Is Great and Almighty and high
Every day he was holding my hand
That’s why I call him friend
