I Know

Happiness cost nothing in reviving 
our soul,
God sends his Angels, but never in a 
way you think.
Know that this Devilish World will 
take it's toil,
There's truth to this story pay 
attention before you sink.
Allowing the world to change my 
views about life,
To were I only care about my next 
paycheck.
See money is everything, we can't 
tell cause of strife.
Watch for you'll always end up a 
wreck.
I've seen the selfishness within my 
own life and paid,
Learned those in my life remind me 
of truths which matters.
So we are the choices we make, if 
we deny friendly aid.
Believe me or not, hoping to change 
my life's patterns. 
Nothing matters more than those 
you hold close,
For they are the ones that never 
walk away.
They're as important to you as water 
is to a rose.
Not like the selfish whose only care 
is for their own ways.
Nothing means more than what you 
hold dear,
So love those which truly love you 
for what's within.
For nothing else will fill the 
loneliness that we all fear,
This somethings missing feeling is 
the way life has been.
Watching the dizzling rain outside 
from my window pain,
There is always been beauty there if 
only I wished to see,
Causing my mind to strain over 
emotions I contain.
Release this conterversual humanity 
and realize simplicity.
