To Conquer

I’ve been stranded in darkness
And I could not find my way.
I was stuck in place
And it was happening every day.
There was no one to help me,
I had to learn on my own.
I had to work through my hardships
To get to my throne.
I crawled on my knees
Every time that I fell.
I crawled through the fire
To get out of hell.
While standing at the roadblock,
I didn’t give up.
I explored other options
When things got tough.
I made it through the jungle
With thorns on my feet.
I patched up my pain
And made some cleats.
I walked and I walked
Until I found the light.
I was blinded with dirt
But I did not lose sight.
