Another spoken word from the EP performed by Soda, one of my great friends and the vocalist in Deaf By Arms. He is an inspiring wordsmith, as well as one of the most subtly strong and overtly kind people ever conceived. As a man who has known and overcome struggle, strife, and the often convoluted opinions of the people who "know best", his style of living is an exercise in real, palpable freedom.
6.) 2nd Reading: In Pieces
As I crumble, I know that I’m stronger than what I’ve become: a shell of a man, not much more than an atom. As I walk and I curse in the night as I search I can taste the remnants of what I’m no longer able to: victory, sweet victory. If only I had not stepped back. But there is always one more game to build my name or bring me shame, the latter not an option. I must rise above through my love and my passion like a dove. I can soar once more to the victory that is my freedom. The time is come, no not to run, but to piece myself back together.
