In the eye of it all
Mixed with all the scourge and dirt
Remembering to learn how to run before you fall
Taking too many risks will get you hurt
In the middle of it all, you get the picture
Too bold to stand down when it starts to rain
Nothing about tomorrow was ever meant to be sure
Don't worry when others decide that you're insane
As it all starts tumbling down around you
You always knew in your heart that this is what you were to be
No walking away before doing what you gotta do
Even if the danger means tomorrow is what you might never see
It's in the eye that some choose to take their stand
They're not waiting for the help to come
There's no guarantee that if it goes wrong, they'll make it to the promised land
Heaven is only meant to receive some
But in the eye of that storm is where you always planned
To one day have to learn if you're a man
Stepping up to the darkness and taking a stand
Deep inside, knowing this wasn't a well-thought-out plan
Rest your head knowing you did the right thing
Not all who could have stepped up to the plate
Know that you don't have to be a hero or a king
And when the good do something bad, they can still enter the gate
But if it's to be that you go down
Know that you'll be remembered well
Wherever this takes you, do not wear a frown
It's better to do what needs to be done than worry about hell
You were in the eye of it all
But you weren't in the storm
You never did truly fall
Because you were the storm

From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
