The Example I'm Leaving Behind


Life isn't easy with no parents around, 

But they left me a brother,

To keep my feet on the ground, 

And I've realized im leaving an example.

 

Some days I feel like giving up, 

And some days it's just really tough, 

Everyday I still get out of bed and he grabs my coffee cup,

And I've realized im leaving an example.

 

Now I'm going to college, 

And he's not too far behind me, 

Throughout the years I've left him alot of knowledge, 

But one thing I've learned from him is that I'm leaving an example.
