Poem
For Granted (Verse 1) One day you have it all The next day you can loose it You have on life to live So you choose it Choose what you want to do Live out your dreams Get it together no matter how hard it seems Keep going , keep pressing Whatever you do stop stressing Over things that you can't control Ask the lord restore your strength and make you whole Remember that he's always in control Chorus Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it Verse 2 Seems like a dream When you look at this world It's getting worse Sometimes it feels like an unwanted verse People are killing For no reason Sometimes I feel like what's the season No I'm not talking about the weather We in a world that can't pull it together The senseless beatings and killings How can we have any dealings I pray this world can get the healing That it needs In order to succeed Will we let it be The children are not living to see Past being a preteen We living in a world so mean We have people dying from being sick Didn't get a chance To live a life And people taking it With a gun a knife Not nice not fair Living in a world that don't care Chorus Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it (Rap) Every day it's the hustle Built tough and strong I got the hustle down pack It help me keep my life on track It's in me , not just on me I hold it down , I'm a queen earned my crown Life throws itself somehow we manage Keep God first Don't take it for granted Chorus Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it Don't take it for granted Keep pushing You can handle it (Repeat until chorus fades) Written by: Concetta Hardnett 03/07/2021
