Walk away

 

I'll walk away someday

When all my problems overwhelm me 

When all fingers point at me and my shadow doesn't follow any more 

I'll walk away 

Maybe find my destiny somewhere else

I'll walk away 

When offered dinner at tables that talk I'll of my kins 

When their friendship now attacks behind my back 

I'll walk away when they no longer talk of success

When their voices no longer praise the Mighty One in zest 

I'll walk away just then 

Walk away 

When your efforts are no longer felt 

When your trials are just mere disturbance

When appreciation is history and all they see are your faults

Walk away 

Maybe you'll be safe 

They talk of him who walked away 

The one whose head got burnt under the sun 

The one whose bloodline could never took as real man

Suffered not to provide but keep them together

They call him deadbeat now 

Walked away in search of milk but never to return

Walk away

That's when they see the role you played 

Walk away 

When your efforts are no longer felt 

When your trials are just mere disturbance

When appreciation is history and all they see are your faults

Walk away 

Maybe you'll be safe ...
