The sword above - It swings. A fragile thread on fragile strings. Every breath I take - A borrowed gift. Fighting against fate. Patient JD - That's my name. In this battle no one is the same. Every scar - A story to tell. I am still standing in this hell. I am not a victim - I am not a slave. I have seen the edge - I have kissed the fear - I have held the night - I have shed the tear. But through the haze - A fire burns - A will to fight. A sword above me thin as air. Cuts hope but leaves despair. Every scar is a battle won. But the war is a race I cannot outrun. Patient JD - That's my name. Living in this frame. Damocles laughs but I will not cry. I will fight until my soul can fly. If this body is a battlefield then determination is the shield I choose to wield. Steel may dangle but I will not bend.

I am still here and I am here now
