Trial - Ascension lyrics

...And driven towards ascension from the ashes of the past With these words as a foundation and the future here at last I have risen from my knees and won't again be beaten down To just crumble at your feet and Surrender values I've cherished all along Convictions grow stronger everyday Because I know who I am and that's not changing I'll live by my word and always strive to respect And those who understand will stand by my side My dedication is a bond secured by trust Which often doesn't seem to some to mean that much But I am grasping at a vision of what this life means to me And in the light of these who don't seem to care I refuse to stand back and just let it fade Convictions grow stronger everyday Because I know who I am and that's not changing To those who live by their word and always strive to respect When all is said and done I'll stand by your side Reaching higher always striving towards ascension
