Keep on keepin on

Well we started shooting hoops,
Now we're sipping Black and Tans
From the park to the pub
Was the course we ran.
The times have changed, but friends remain
My heart and soul's with you
Cause one thing's for sure, i always swore,
I'd never turn my back on you-

Never turned our backs,
Stuck together through and through,
The times have changed,
But my heart and soul's with you
Wouldn't turn your backs
And you didn't walk away
We'd never run,
We'd stand as one,
And this is what we'd say:

Times were tough,
But the memories remain
Situations rough,
But we overcame.
Side by side, one for all,
Together we grew
Cause when it's said and done,
I'll look back on friends like you

When I was down and I was out
And no one liked my games,
One too many fights and bloody night
For which i was to blame
But you wouldn't turn your backs
And you didn't walk away
Cause we'd never run We'd stand as one
Until this very day

Never turn our backs
Together through and through
The times have changed,
But my heart and soul's with you
Wouldn't turn your backs
And you didn't walk away
We'd never run, we'd stand as one
Until this very day





I just watched the Green Mile for the first time in a long while, and am stunned by it. The first time I saw it, I may have been too young to truly appreciate what was going on, or maybe I didn't want to hear the message.

That message was that no matter what happens, there is hope. Hope for everything. For happiness. For freedom. For strength. For humanity...and for me. There are times when life beat me down so much I didn't know if I'd ever be the same. And I wasn't... but then that's the trick. I'm not supposed to be the same, I'm supposed to learn, and take away things, hard lessons that I would not have learned or taken to heart if I hadn't been hurt so badly.

There are some out there that are seriously worried about me. Don't be. Like anything else, I will put my head down and keep on going. I fuck up a lot, and hurt a lot of people when I do, but I'm learning. I'm much weaker than I thought I was, and the fact that I'm still alive now is a testament to the strength of those around me, and the indominable spirit that has been infused into me in the last few years.



We fight the good fight.

Yes, I'm getting very sentimental lately. I must be on the rag or something...don't worry, I will get over it soon.
