By' Jeffrey Stevens
When I'm gone from days of depression, 
I'll hit a backkwoods holler, and raise the volume, to the sounds of country music,
And as it rumbles from my speakers,
It takes my mind away from all the pain,and negativity, that surrounds me,
While I get lost in all my thoughts, I set and think,
I dream of the day, i shall open my eyes, To watch the sun rise, while the previous words of hurt, disappear through yesterday's past, fadeing through the stillness of time. 
The lies, the hate, there are no reasons for. 
And one day you shall see, Those  words of hurt  you spoke, Along with the lies You have told,
they Shall hurt my soul no more,
Yesterday's gone, you to will grow old, 
Just remember the pain you've caused while you feel what I've felt From reaping, your words of hurt, and the lies you've sown. 
All that and the pain you brought  have seemed to compile into a humongous  smothering shadow of  darkness that has blotted out the ray of light, that once gave me the willpower to shine, 
I will not let darkness defeat me, I will rise up through the shadows, and walk through the ashes, of every bridge I've burnt, 
they will see that while they were hopeing  I was nothing,
Well my dreams, visions, and country music painted me a picture today,
And "oh man" let me tell you.In it I was something.

Dream big, hope high, will power strong, praise God, love life,hurt no one.....
