Silent Victory How many times do I have to bite my tongue? Hide the fire in my lungs just to watch another day go by. How many scars do I have to wear unseen? Cover everything I mean just to keep the silence alive. They call it weakness because they never learned restraint. They mistake kindness for something they can break. If I walk away, it doesn't mean I'm wrong. Some battles feed the dark by proving they belong. So I'll carry all this weight without becoming hate. Sometimes the strongest soul is the one that doesn't retaliate. How many dreams need to disappear from sight? How many truths stay out of fights so they don't drown inside the noise? Watching anger wear a crown, watching ignorance get loud... Love keeps whispering somehow, even when it has no voice. If I lose today to save the man I'll be, then maybe losing is another kind of victory. No poison in my veins, no vengeance in my hands. I'd rather guard my soul than make them understand. Let them scream into the night... I'll become the morning light. The world can keep its endless fight... I'll keep what's left of me alive.
