Ready for Battle

It’s times like these I just want to scream.

Just one more minute and it’s gonna rip my seam.

I can’t stand this frustration,

Done at the hands of my own creation.

You see, it’s my fault in the first place,

I can’t take the fact that I’m the one who started this race.

And I know that I’m being taken advantage of,

But there's no chance I can stop this labor of love.

Now, I know I have to take a stand,

Steal some time and get back on my land.

I just need to figure out how to get my start,

For justice to be done I know I have to do my part.

Time to get down, break down, take my place and fight.
Time to get up, rise up, and gain a little height.

And I know that I’m still at the beginning of my life,

And I know that I'm gonna overcome this strife.

My courage will rise as I look to God,

And I know as I rise up everyone will be awed.

So I stand up, ready to fight, taking my ground,

And I take heed to His presence knowing I will be safe and sound.

As look around, laughing at the enemy’s prattle,
Sword in hand, standing on the edge of this battle,

I know that I am covered by His blood,

And I know that I am surrounded by the cloak of His love.

So with all of that said I turn to you and ask,

Are you ready to go kick some ass?
