Pushing against a flood of opposition
Crashing down and threatening
To smother what I hold inside
The words of the weak
Can’t permeate this wall
I’ve built around what keeps me alive
Standing hard
Holding fast
To what I know is true to me
Here and now, we make our stand
Fighting for what’s true to me
I will stand
I won’t let it slip away
I’ll keep my head above the surface
Push back against the grain
