Family

Sometimes We take for granted what should be there,
The people that always care

We face our challenges to get by
Even if it means we all have to cry

No one said life would be easy

Some obstacles are going to be rough
But 
All it means is you have to stay tough
 
If your on my side its not so bad
You give me a shoulder to cry on when I am sad
No matter what we go through, in truth I can't be mad

Some days are a surging tide
But 
We face each one with abounding pride
Even, if our opinions should collide

Theres a lot of love in what we do
It means we are family through and through
