Rise above all that keeps you down and stand for something. |
-Shoulder Something- by Keaton Foster Shoulder something Play along with the game Dare not be one to complain Take the medicine deep inside Allow all sickness and doubt To rise to the surface of who you are Once there, expel it out into the world Fear nothing for those in close proximity They will not become infected They will not become like you They are immune to you toxicity They serve a higher power A deeper meaning of life With blinders they see what you Cannot not see with eyes open wide Beyond terra-firma they stand As you settle down into the dust Of all that you have previously destroyed Your goal, your true destination Is to become more like them To do such a hypocritical deed you must Shoulder something beyond all weight Carry a load that you are sure is unbearable Only then will you become more like them Only they will you know what it feels like To be above all that makes you human Put your faith, your will to believe Into something that cannot be proven Something that cannot be judged Only then will you have the strength To overcome what it means to be you Only then will you be able To hold any weight applied Only then will you be able to rise up Out of the dust of your past To a higher plane of existence… Shoulder Something Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2012. |
