Getting to that place.
The Abbey
Your journey was long
Many obstacles on the way
But you wouldn't change it in anyway
There was love and fights
And moonlit nights
But now the air has cleared
And you made it right
You reached the Abbey
Where nothing on earth matters anymore
You did us all proud
Left behind your crowd
You were there for us for sure
Now you've found your peace
And everything you need
Down that stream you swam
Dodging enemies in your way
You rode currents and caught all of those waves
You stayed so afloat
In nights and days
So now your head is free
You are glad you came
You reached the Abbey
Where nothing on earth matters anymore
You did us all proud
Left behind your crowd
You were there for us for sure
Now you've found your peace
And everything you need
Place of rejuvenation
Place of education
Place of imagination
Place of fascination
You reached the Abbey
Where nothing on earth matters anymore
You did us all proud
Left behind your crowd
You were there for us for sure
Now you've found your peace
And everything you need

A pretty full story! This sort of lyric can always be factual or metaphorical . Let the reader decide. Nice stuff.

Very interesting lyric. I can see how it could be several different things to different people, which is always a good thing.
For some reason, I kept thinking of a wild salmon, swimming upstream to spawn, which is incredibly hard work, and then having completed the mission, swimming easily back to the sea and a calm life again.
Good lyric, and if it gets musicated please let me know.
