Staring up where the purple meets pink
A trail of light before I can blink
Lost panda on the corner of the soul
Tracing paths I cannot control
I see a spark in the upper left arc
A cigarette etched in the heavens as a mark
The sky is deep like a heavyweight floor
But something in the red makes me want more
If the burden is heavy, it's a sign that I'm built
Strength isn't found in a quieted guilt
He doesn't give battles to those who will fall
He hands the weapons to the best of us all
Rising higher where the sky turns deep
Promises that I'm meant to keep
Courage is a fire in the dead of the night
Making me a soldier for the greater light
Against the darkness of the purple and red
I hear the words that the prophets have said
Resilience isn't just surviving the crash
It's finding the gold inside of the ash
A soldier doesn't rest when the terrain is steep
He climbs to the peak while the others are asleep
I see the twilight turning into a wall
But I'm moving forward, I won't ever crawl
Faith is the air in this altitude race
Purpose is written all over this face
Red soldiers stand when the pressure gets high
Leaving their contrails across the sky
If the burden is heavy, it's a sign that I'm built
Strength isn't found in a quieted guilt
He doesn't give battles to those who will fall
He hands the weapons to the best of us all
Rising higher where the sky turns deep
Promises that I'm meant to keep
Courage is a fire in the dead of the night
Making me a soldier for the greater light
The battle is a gift
Best soldier
Into the light
I am ready
Purpose
