When the light shines brighter,

Through the worst of times,
Though it may seem tough,
You must at least try


When the light shines brighter,
When you feel it is over,
When you want it to end,
You must find closure


When the light shines brighter,
  And you are tired,
After a long journey,
You must find your desires


When the light shines brighter,
You are stripped down,
You have no strength,
You must fight and pound,
