We are all fighting battles
Some were given, most we choose
Some we win, most we lose
Rather than rest in peace, we battle

We are all building the future
Some intentionally, most by serendipity
Some memorably, most unnoticed
Rather than live, we hasten the future

We are all hiding pain
Some use a smile, most use another wrong
Some use a bottle, most use a song
Rather than heal, we feed the pain

– Osasu Oviawe
