VIM

Vim is a wild, ferocious instinct

No calm, no chill, no peace... Just a fusion of passion and emotion 

Vim is a voracious hunger that cannot be satisfied 

Vim is overcoming your weakness and the willingness to transform your mistakes

Vim is a drive that has no brake, more than a Bugatti engine 

Vim is ambition, building a staircase to the sky, step by step

Vim is the belief that you can move a mountain 

Vim is power and energy and time

Vim is hope and belief and perseverance

Vim is resilience, getting up after a knockdown, ready to fight again 

Vim is strength

And true strength is mental 

Vim is loud and instrumental. 

WAR

Scarier than a Lion's roar 

Life... maybe a brawl, maybe a war

Everyday and every night 

not a warrior, but I fight

I fight to live, i live to fight

Like a gallant knight

Relentlessly for more than four dozen fortnights 

Do you rely on wot you see?... I'm not selling a rumour

you probably doubt me cos you don't see me in a bright shiny amour

Then again you conceive heavy doubt 

Just because you don't see me flinging punches in a bout

In case you wonder... I'm not a ruthless Pugilist

Neither a wrestler, nor a martial  specialist 

I do not wield a sword, Nor a shield

Never seen.. Never been in a scene of battlefield 

But in my mind I've faced the fiercest battles

Beneath those cognitive crevices, my arch enemy rattles

There's a war front at the hind of this mind

Life, No trifles for rifles in this kind of grind

I face wot I don't see but that which I can perceive

Barricades of self doubts... No cease fire, No relief

Battalions commanded by disbelief 

Legions of voices that attack my fears, worries and grief

Life is war

Though we don't always see wounds and gore galore

Birthed into this pride

born into this wild

Can I adapt? Is survival on my side? 

Good lord, good God, this mind is a ring 

Where I wrestle myself within 

And quarrel with my thoughts, more or less... I guess

It's stress, Cos Sometimes I need to say no when my soul says yes

And rebel against all the lies

And tell myself if it ain't worth it, don't ever sacrifice nor compromise Never rationalise 

It doesn't always mean peace when there's silence

The roughest violence resides in the brain, where the ambience is silence 

We do not see, but Hearts are arenas 

Where we bob and weave against nibbling temptations like piranhas 

How do you build defences without fortifying offences

We all wage war against insecurities 

Who wouldn't slay poverty?

No wonder we sometimes fight change 

And Time and freedom within our range

Sometimes We lose, sometimes we win 

Sometimes We are heroes, sometimes fallen soldiers to the villain

I can't say I like this daily rampage 

Buh I can say I like this lifetime challenge

True strength is mental 

A strong mind is instrumental
