Because I Love You


Life will get tricky, it won't be sweet.

Because I love you, follow the instructions on this sheet.

Because I love you, don't let gambling be an addiction.

this will only cause the devil to be in charge of your conviction

Because I love you, don't look for the possesions of others.

For all you know, their life is going down a gutter.

Because I love you, do not become lazy.

Otherwise, your mind will start going crazy.

Because I love you, do not boast upon your beliefs.

Because the only feeling at your funeral is going to be relief.

Because I love you, do not eat more than you need.

This will only slow you down and decrease your speed.

Because I love you, do not let sex become a stress relief

because when you get an STD, you will be crying in grief.

Because I love you, do not get mad at anyone's insults,

because they still have a long way before becoming an adult.

Because I love you, listen to the advice I am giving.

I won't be around forever. I won't forever living.
