A Card Game

Life is a card game
Your dealt the hand
Now you most chose
How to play if you wantta win
Only you can make the choice
Cause everyone else is playing too
 
Your gonna make mistakes
Your gonna be worng
You need to listen close
But you need to talk to
You'll soon know the differences
 
But it takes time to learn
It's not all something you'll know
Right from the get go
Take a friends hand
Walk with them
Listen to their advice
 
Think the hand over
Don't just rush in to it
You gotta move slow
But you'll only be dished so much at a time
So relax besides 
You'll never walk alone
 
Sometimes you have to take a risk
Other times just fold your hand
And walk away the better person
Cause you wont always win
But just remember
You gotta make the call
 
Do you fold or do you draw??
