To Overcome Adversity

 

Surviving adversity, it is really against the odds

that you'll still stay normal with your full deck of cards

Like many a cause that you know have a price

where principle is concerned, you're ready to sacrifice

There is right and there is wrong, you don't need to belong

your principles are just, they have made you headstrong

No rhyme and no reason can sway you from this cause

because you've pondered its justice and have found no flaws

Shouts of anger and negativity galore

you are now tasting just what is in store

What words could you offer to those limited in thought

when all is finished, would it be your wisdom they sought?

Words of the heart enter the heart, when all else fails

it's not a bad place to be, when addressing another's ails

To overcome adversity there is not always one solution

but it can never be found in starting a revolution

In final sum, it seems like the rule of thumb

better to negotiate that peace and thensome

For the alternatives are all to clear

why perpetuate hatred and fear

so put aside your differences

and find a world wishing to care
