BACK OFF

I am feeble; I succumb all day because of my throbbing
however in my anguish I found my strength, that I can be invincible
that no one and nothing can triumph over my torment.
For I am as numb as a rock and as strong as the wind

Those who seek my destruction, never get a hold of victory
for my faith is my guard and God is my deliverance,
there is nothing I shall not overcome,
Nor there is anything I cannot handle

Those who are deceitful, take advantage of my flaws
All day, they speak their fury against me, while at one corner I stand defenseless
My heart is muffled because of overwhelming pain
and the tears in my eyes is my form of release

My unrelenting attitude brought me to the core,
regardless of their defiance who witnessed my agony and made it their pleasure
I continue to stand with my own two feet without anyone's fortification
My family's embrace became my shelter, my true friends became my understanding, and my faith in God became my defense

One day, the life we borrowed will be taken back from the only One who owns it,
I will not argue with His plan, but one thing is certain,
when I die, my death is not the end of my affliction,
It is only the beginning of what lies ahead...
