Lyrics

Matty


Once in a while
The spirit surrounds us
Encompass a life
Enshrine a soul

To fight is to live
Surrender to freedom
A life that gave breath
To have, to hold
His spirit today
Without and within us
Heart thumping, blood rising
We choke back a tear

A spirit so strong
Will allow us
To love and experience
Before we?re too old

Today we subside
Back into our minds
Discover a treasure
As precious as gold

Never can we be
Allowed to diminish
The beauty, his valour
It?ll never get old?.

Freedom I guess
I?ve been denied the rest?
