Chances

Chances. We got the chance In the arena of life's dance Tis time to use it Tap our feet Each had his own All have their own To try and shine To do the best And be ahead of the rest We have chances , To prove our worth, In the arena of bloody bed linen Of wails and heart-rending cries Of people in need of rest We have a chance , To salvage the situation, To bring hope to the population, Life to the dead, And joy to the sad We have the chance while we live, For what we ought to give , Is our full share of devotion, To what we do best Chances never come in vain, Nor to one parking in the lane, Let our chances kill the pain, Like showers of morning rain.
