From the solid ground I now stand,
I may say things you may misunderstand…
I am human and can make mistakes,
But I proved to the world that I am not fake…
I have gone through heaven and hell,
Getting back up every time down I fell…
Many times my life was prosperous or tight,
But, in my struggle, I put up a good fight…
By feeling the moments of pain or ecstasy,
I paved the way toward my own legacy…
Bewitched by the essence of mother's nature,
I live humble despite of all the pressure…
Now, by taking a new direction,
I can clearly see my validation…
Successfully overcoming suffering and pain,
And becoming master of my destiny's domain…
