Yes You Can

Feel to the anguish of the less fortunate Picture those who opt for shortcuts in life Sense their grief for they’ve missed out They forgot a simple life’s equation Hard work bares success See the crack of dawn Even though the day is not firmly established Just like your journey, it has just begun Each second present you with a chance A chance to better yourself for future Strive not to be the same as yesterday For yesterday is history In life nothing is promised But through hard work anything is attainable Learn from your predecessors, O! You chosen ones See the miles of my journey through my grey headed My journey was lonely and tiring I lived as if tomorrow will be dissimilar Now I know change is now O! If you would listen to my adage Our era maybe dissimilar But the challenges are similar Let my impediments be your road signage’s To help you avoid the knocks I took So that you prosper a satisfying life Let each opportunity fill your artillery To allow your mind to discharge missiles That can help you crack your impediments Just like the light penetrates the darkness Fire the thought that says, you can’t Because your love for life, tells me you can! Yes you can
