LIFE


Life is a very complicated journey
With obstacles to accomplish everyday
Sometimes you feel like there is no use
And you should just give up, but I say 'no way!'

Nobody says life is supposed to be easy
But it can be much harder
When you make it that way
I say just take things day by day

Everyone does go through their ups and downs
But that's just the way things are meant to be
Being prepared and strong enough to get through
Is the key

For when this is done
you can see that yes life does have a purpose
And so does each and every person

Love and hate
Is just a matter of destiny and fate
Your life is planned out
Yes, this I believe
However, it's up to you
To make sure everything comes about

If you were put in this world
It was for a specific reason
And it's up to you to figure it out
If you really have the ambition to succeed
You will without a doubt

Sometimes life will seem unbearable
Because of certain things that one lacks
It is patience, desire, ambition, faith, and hope
That holds one back

If we had all of this
Then many of our lives wouldn't be the way they are
We would be able to soar, up and far

Life is not perfect, as nothing is
There are times when life may throw you off track
But I say keep believing in achieving your goals

If you have faith in yourself
You will not fall into the holes
Because soon you will look back
And this I guarantee
To say I made it, now I can be!
