what sets us apart // draft 1

Noah Malice

what sets us apart
not sets us aside
lies in our hearts
not that they lie

what keeps us on track
the long noble trail
is never looking back
and no fear to fail

when we rise above
the pain in our minds
when we choose love
and choose to be kind

to roll with the punches
and roll punches no more
to stick to the trenches
when the punches pour

take cover with courage
take courage in flood
and remember sacrifices
we gave all in blood

what sets us apart
though we're not there yet
is we know we'll make it
...

what sets us apart

not sets us aside

not the weight in our hearts

    Amen!
    thank you, dear Poet
    (I read and learn)
    'to roll with the punches
    and roll punches no more
    to stick to the trenches
    when the punches pour

    take cover with courage
    take courage in flood
    and remember sacrifices
    we gave all in blood

    what sets us apart
    though we're not there yet
    is we know we'll make it
    ...'
