so must you offense isn't a sentence
2:33
it's a choice people will mock twist
2:35
your motives spin lies that's the game
2:38
but don't take the bait don't defend
2:40
every blow or swing at every jab the
2:42
trap is this offense is yours to take or

for they know not what they do." In that
3:06
moment he handed us the ultimate truth
3:09
forgiveness is the throne of power never
3:12
stoop to match someone's fury when they
3:14
slander let your character roar louder
3:17
than their noise when they provoke don't

3:37
and kept striding later he wrote "I
3:40
shall permit no man to narrow and
3:41
degrade my soul by making me hate him
3:44
that's victory not in retaliation but in
3:46
refusal to bend each time you take
3:49
things personally you lose a sliver of
