Triumph Of Defeat
In the event of losing everything invested in earning a name
In exchange for doubts and of noble shame
For the sake of something I have to fight
For doing what is really right.
It is in the moment I lost my prestige that I obtained respect
In the moment of losing my honor I gained dignity in every aspect
In the moment of lies I’ve known the truth
In the moment of autumn springs forth fruit.
In the midst of betrayal I earned trust
In the midst of war I’ve found peace at last
In the midst of chasing away that glorious fame
In the midst of knowing what worth the pain.
For most they thought I just gave up everything
But the prize I say is more than anything
For some they call it stupid
I say it is the triumph of defeat.
