KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!


                                   

 

Have you ever felt like giving up?

Did something horrible happen to you that you

could not fathom why you are still alive today?

Does your efforts sometimes feel like

a drop of water in a tin cup sometimes?

Do you need some kind of revival?

Keep your head up!

Do not become smothered by the world

Breathe…do not let the world change you

But let the world change for you!

Let the world know how strong you can be

Have your own purpose in life

If you do not know what your purpose is yet

Then let them see the light in the darkest of tunnels

Come let us filter our doubts through a funnel

Let us stop those negative thoughts from formulating

Let us not let this world oppress us any longer

Let us all achieve excellence

Let us keep our heads up at all times!

Be as strong as our willpowers are to survive

Elevate yourselves and continue to thrive

Let your life become an example of righteousness

With the right gust of wind in the right direction

It can propel you forward in life

Keep your head up!

Keep on going!

Move forward and never look back

Put yourself on the map

And watch out for anything that can be disguised as a trap

Be strong, be bold

                             LIVE WELL AND DIE OLD
