How much you hurt us all

See the markings on the wall

It was hard times growing up here without you

Now I try to figure out how to get through

I am rising up, a little by little

I am going where I have never gone before

I am rising up, gonna get real high

I am moving up, gonna touch the sky

I slowly turn my back on the fog of war

And I walk away
