When life gives you lemons


Life will give you lemons and tell you to make lemonade 

Magizines and fasion models give you a fake picture and tell you to become like them 

I wish someone would come to my ade

So I can go be who I am 

 

Life will burn you and burry you until you are no more 

Untruthful friends will leave you unless you conform 

I am not rich for I am poor 

Everyone will hate you unless you preform 

 

Life assults us and means to break us 

people curse us and force us to hide 

As for me I choose to remain unless 

and to always be who I am inside

When life gives you lemons never be afraid
