and
the
words

was
a

down
a
chapter
on
a

kind
of
page
The 80
s
are
beating
like
a
heart
that’

still
alive
Reminding
me
that
greatness
is
something
that
survives
You
faced
the
storms
and
struggles,

paved
a
heavy
road
Now
you’

shed
the
burden,
you’

put
down
the
heavy
load

[Bridge] Though
the

Watering
the

for
us

Becoming
