Aspiration lyrics

Victim of anger tied to distance.
Where does it come from? Distrust.
I've stood strong,
Held my head high through constant war.
So brutal, so violent,
So I tiptoe through conversation.
A lapse in my step is misperceived.
Unleash a breath of salvation.
In dormancy lies everlasting grace.
Remember all the fires we started, our aspiration for progression.
We feed the burning for a better day.
Don't let your selfishness extinguish the flame.
Prevailing with lasting intentions.
Never living behind your back,
Never living behind your convictions.
Leaves me questioning if you're still living behind mine.
