A Life
A Life
A life, it's a pain to create it and a pain to see it leave
It could be ripped away in a second
Or held in your hand until your old and gray
You wanna take care of it
But you wanna be limitless on what you can do.
So how can you do anything when you're too scared to lose something so little?
In the end we all die
But why do some of us choose to not do anything meaningful?
Is it because we're scared of death or because we don't have the heart to do it?
And worst of all some people choose to take others livea with theirs
But why would they take someone's life when that person has so much to look up to.
They shouldn't be able to choose who lives and who dies.
A life is small but it's given to you for a reason to do the most you can with it without fear
To go out there and show everyone that you can't just sit on your ass and expect everything to turn out okay
You have to get up and take a stand even if it means that you have to give up your life
Because it's better to have a short meaningful life that will be rememberd forever
Than a long meaningless life that will fade away from the world like smoke.
