The ruthlessness of reality
Has pushed you to the edge
Made you run a mileage
Affected your visage

I no longer see your eyes smile
Or glimmer with pride
But, amidst all these
You never run and hide

Fumble. Stumble.
A glint of hope still recognizable
A belief that the future is feasible

Never let it diminish and die
Enliven the fire

So now,
Please hear me and do yourself a favor
Everytime you look at a mirror
Tell yourself you're a warrior

A fighter
Who've been to all tremor
Still a survivor
Wearing the biggest armor

Wisdom and good faith
For a helmet

Resiliency and strong will
As breastplate

Talents and aspirations
Encompass your lance

While

Family and friends
Make up your grand guard

And don't you forget
You also have an armory
Full of precious arsenals like ivory

Unknown. Untapped.
Waiting to be touched
To be utilized

From the very beginning
You already have these resource
For you are a knight with a purpose

You are a warrior in life.

The great warrior
Of your own crusade.
