Overcome

●○< Overcome >○●

I can, I will, I shall overcome!

No more will I have this sadness,

I shall escape this withering madness,

What’s been done unto me,

Has actually set me free.

No more are the lies,

And your misleading disguise,

I know I will succeed,

My heart has now been freed.

Still I wonder how I was played,

And how I felt so dismayed,

A certain thought is sure,

One I know is pure.

Soon you’ll know what you had,

In that moment, I hope you’re sad.

Better than you I deserve,

In happiness I now will serve.

I can, I will, I shall overcome!
