Life's Lessons


We’re the cause of our own problems, we control our own fate We should learn that life’s a lesson, before it’s way too late I learned that nothing is completed, without determination We’ll only help our neighbors, as long as there’s compensation We’re the solution to our problems, the path to our own greatness We talk about diplomacy, yet, our conversations are graceless We learn that nothing is admirable without competition We may not always win but, still, respect the opposition We can’t always be reliant, we’re our own inspiration There’s an abundance of different ways we can achieve our aspiration Keep your head held high, positivity is the message Don’t let your faith waiver; don’t let your pride lessen When the world is cold, know self-sufficiency makes you warmer Don’t let the world change you, don’t personify Transformers Be true to yourself, the world will judge regardless Lend compassion to others, even when they’ve been heartless 17 years young, yet I know what life’s about I just want to be successful, God will present what’s the best route Family is everything, they devolve all my stresses When I need some advice, I look to them for some lessons
