Life and lemonade


When life give you lemons

You make lemonade

But when life leaves you broken 

No on rushes to your aid

 

The world turns round

everyone is bustling about

Impervious to our neighbors

leaving us filled with doubt

 

When we succeed

we are filled with praise

we are paraded around

as if we are Rutherford B Hayes

 

But when we go down

and our face full of dirt

No one stand by our side

no one to help with the hurt

 

So stand by your brother

And your sister too 

becuase we all have pains

our own battles to get through

 

When life makes you lemons

you make lemonade

You only write once

instead, be someone's aid
