Staying Strong


If you start dropping like a rock

You could restart,

Before you run out of time on the clock,

You could be smart.

 

To go for the gold

If your life is ordinary

Before you get to old

You can make it extraordinary.

 

You can go adventuring,

Or you can sit around,

See if things are worth mentioning

Don't pretend to be a clown

 

So don't waste your valuable time

Just start to slowly climb.
