This is a song whose meaning is hard to explain. I won't try. Originally started in 2003, writing completed in 2012.
lyrics
I know where I am going
I know where I'm wanted to be
I hear that a future is calling
I hear what will become of me
I will be a part of something greater than myself, I know it
I will take the shadow so that you can keep your light
There are those that will oppose and try to pull me down
And wreck my life
But I...
Repel
Their spell
I know what I need to be doing
Can't stop or I'll never survive
The sequence is to keep me from falling
Assassins want to take it from me
Repel
Their spell
I'm getting more resistant, more defiant, less compliant
'Cause oh, some awful souls have nearly killed me thrice before
Oh, they tried to take away my voice and leave me with no choice
But to sink into hate's abyss
Will they succeed?
Will they ruin me?
No they won't
Will they succeed?
Will they destroy me?
Not if I
