RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
Stand your Ground
There are times to compromise
There are times to stand your ground
When all you hear are lies
To honor you are bound
Your principles should never bend
Or bow to greater force
While broken fences we should mend
Remember: stay the course
A compromise will never do
When it wounds your very soul
To yourself you must be true
You’ll find no other role
So suffer through the consequence
If that is what’s required
For that is what the wise one meant
Do not put out the fire
For we are what we stand for
Be it bad or be it good
We’ll open up or bar the door
According to what we should
