Mouths in shouts
Releasing arrow words in sharps
Aiming at my being
Know that I am as swift as an eagle
And armoured like God’s soldier
So I keep going higher
II
Tongues like serpents
Hissing my biography
Wanting a slaughter
Of my name and fame to have me tamed
Don’t bother
My name is an unmeltable iron
No weapon can have it slaughtered
Save your strength
Because I keep going higher
III
You keep pushing me to drown
And God gives me a boat
You keep hating my guts
And success flies me like a kite
You keep shooting me to die
And God immunes me to your tries
Your every miss “zipples” to backfire
So save your strength
For I will always keep going higher
