WOULD YOU BE STRONG ENOUGH…
Inspired by Sherly Crow & Stevie Nicks’ ‘ARE YOU STRONG ENOUGH TO BE…..’
Like a soldier in the midst of combat I am of courage by default
And to risk my genre- these scars of war just blind testimony
To the chances you would commit your little poor soul to
Yet the big question still remains
Whether you would be strong enough to be my girl
You may concoct alibis redound
You may make me feel like I was on top of the world
Because fortitude to me is like a sinister byword
Yet to query myself will remain that blatant pastime-puzzle
Whether you would be strong enough to be my girl
When I am torn between duty and romance
When like an irate gorilla to thee a blind shoulder I seem to turn
And it feels like I no longer cared
Would you be strong enough to be my girl?
When the rules of engagement dictate home I shouldn’t stay
When it feels like I was just like chasing the wind
And home I came crippled, lost, maimed, and half-human
Would you be strong enough to be my girl?
When I would be broke and penniless
When to carter for your material desires I no longer would afford
And it felt like the world had come to an abrupt end
Would you be strong enough to be my girl?
Maestro ‘DAMBUDZO’ Williams
