At All Cost

Do you see clearly
 The image on the wall?
 Is true that man
 Must surely fall
 If we build foundations
 Reflections in our eyes
 Unless, we look deep within
 It's believing only lies
 Shadows cast in likeness
 Stretching with the sun
 Like the fear of death
 They linger even though we run
 Once before we lived in
 Another space and time
 Now that the earth is our home
 We need a reason for the rhyme
 Don't separate yourself
 From your dreams
 Do what you must to survive
 Don't give up and don't give in
 You must keep your dream alive
 Do what you must to survive
 The consequence is clear
 Regret will break your heart
 If you stop reaching for
 The top, you'll be torn apart
 Nothing worthwhile is easy
 The path isn't always clear
 With each forward step
 We take, we bring the meaning ever near
 Fear plagues each moment
 Conviction will decide
 If energy is gained or lost
 Nothing more can it provide
 Against the odds we struggle
 Each in his own way
 But you are the one
 That faces reflections of every day
