Lion's Roar

(David Cornwall )

This lyric is the pinnacle of human nature & love and endurance. It depicts not only one mans struggle with being a quadriplegic at 19 but the eternal love & care from an incredible woman & mother of his two beautiful children until his recent passing at age 61. RIP mate I think of you every day.

V 1.
Sacrifice and giving most don’t understand
Saints are mortal it’s true
But sometimes life’s dealt through fates evil hand
A knot untied sometimes pulls through

V 2.
Passed in halls a late teen love affair
You’re skin silk brown her eyes of blue
In a blink of an eye fear of missing out
Moulds now broken, she breaths for two

Chorus
You don’t stand but ya ten feet tall
The kind of man I admired, (don’t you know?)
You don’t stand, she’ll never let you fall
Thinking of you when lion’s roar, (when lion’s roar)

V 3.
Few have looked to the heavens as long as you
Thoughts of why? Embrace your mind
You once told me that you don’t believe
But now there’s three angels left behind

V 4.
Superman has come and gone
Outlived them all nothing left to gain
Kryptonite can ease your pain dear friend
Luther no more, your decision made

Chorus
You don’t stand but ya ten feet tall
The kind of man I admired, (don’t you know?)
You don’t stand she’ll never let you fall
Thinking of you when lion’s roar, (when lion’s roar)

V 5.
On your own terms, now it’s her time to shine
Soulmates in afterlife through & through
A Legacy is not tinsel left behind dear friend
Your Legacy for me are my thoughts of you

Outro
You don’t stand but ya ten feet tall
The kind of man I admired, (don’t you know?)
You don’t stand she’ll never let ya fall
Thinking of you when lion’s roar, (ooooh)
You don’t stand but ya ten feet tall
The kind of man I admired, (don’t you know?)
You don’t stand she’ll never let ya fall
Thinking of you when lion’s roar, (when lion's roar)
