HM04: Strength!!! (Victory Road)

In my childhood remember,

there was a game with battles and creatures,

in where at the end

I moved boulders

and the cartridge was yellow.

"Use your strength!"

I'd say,

use

your strength....

something I've had to have been

taught.

Even though I seem strong enough

it's mostly just my voice,

that's my strength defending

and pushing boulders away from me

in the low light towards victory.

it took ages but I got down that

road, everyone was weak

like me,

everyone was tired,

like me,

but they were still determined

Just. Like. Me.

I compare this team to the

people that I know,

They're prepared and adequate,

ready to cut fear down,

in the spotlight which

highlights what can't be seen

in dark cavernous caves,

caves to victory

laid down on the gravel meant

to be tread on,

gravel I can see.

"Go use your strength!"

the strength of the heart

& mind,

that which lies inside,

that which is there to confide in,

don't you dare hide it,

although when it's heard that

"It's not the time to use that"

we end up believing,

but it's not true.

I don't have the strength

that is seen,

the power of the mind

is the magick that wills me

to easily move aside

my obstacles

to where they need to be

Something bigger than me?

Strength

Something harder it seems...

Strength

I can deal with it with my

Strength,

I'll wear it out till it loses

its meaning indefinitely,

There is a road,

there is a way,

I won't decide not to

walk through it to what

lies beyond and ahead,

to let go is to defend

with whatever I perceive

strength to be

within myself

So I'll

try hard instead of

not trying, or

just going

hard,

far,

or in between,

I have what I need,

I have it indeed,

stand in my way and

I can teach you,

or shake my heart's hands and

I may greet you,

just like I did and still do

on that journey to a victory road

Walk down that road to victory,

my life was, no

my life is a

Nintendo game,

There's always a second chance to

Change.
