All the anguish, all the pain, all the anxiety running through my brain
Apathy charging my sense of worth, goals in life shrouded in fields of murk
Try to think, try to gain, fight for victory, something slain
Every win has a loss, the stronger soul is the boss
Tired, weary, clouded, confused, thoughts in shambles, minds abused
Wounded soldier needing rest, daily battle putting soul to test
Fleeing caring from anger's wrath, mind verses emotion the war a bloodbath
Havoc raging in my head, must find strength or find me dead
Try, try give a damn, get slapped down, get up again
Over and over the same events, some die, some repent
Bruised, battered, broken in two, life is a process we go through
Soul soldier armed and ready, sighting mark, holding steady
Target dreams trained to achieve, despite broken hearts, desperation, other's greed
Inner war constantly staging, never resting, ever changing
Another day, another night, continuous is this fight
Through mud, blood, days of rain, can't surrender to the pain
Injection, digestion, drug armor a fake, from our mind there is no escape
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, there is no leaving of one's mind
Inner strength do veterans make, life scarred soles attest their fate
Finding weapons from within, is the soul's stratagy to win
Personal conflicts come to rest, through earnest effort and the giving of one's best
