If You'Re Not Busy
If you’re not busy being born you will start dying.
If you’re not busy finding the truth you are just lying.
If you’re not busy laughing you wind up crying.
If you’re not busy finding joy you find yourself sighing.
If you’re not busy trying you will accept losing.
If you’re not busy looking you are not choosing.
If you’re not busy loving you learn to hate.
If you’re not busy dreaming you seal your fate.
If you’re not busy finding you are getting lost.
If you’re not busy paying you can’t see the cost.
If you’re not busy running you got left behind.
If you’re not busy thinking it is lost in your mind.
If you’re not busy there’s something I must do.
If you’re not busy I will share them with you.
