Atlas Endures
Under pressure
Literally
A misconception think not I
A punishment for a wrong choice
So they say
But if Atlas shrugged, why can't I?
A burden far too much to hold
Stress breaks the thunderous sky
A sigh of relief, a catapult
If Atlas shrugged, why can't I?
Muscles tense, forward motion
The locomotive of life comes pummeling by
Nothing can stop this endless cycle
But if Atlas shrugged, why don't I?
Atlas Telamon
Condemned to hold the world until he dies
If Atlas learned to carry the weight
If Atlas accepted his fate
If despite his failures, he is considered great
Why, oh why not I?
