Lemons To Lemonade

Life is not always easy, for some it is pretty rough
You have to take the good with the bad. the sweet with the sour
But some of that is by the choice we make
Some will burn in the fire, others it will make tough
For those, it will be a struggle to the last hour
Finding out is not always a piece of cake

Temptation paves the Devil's highway
And he will offer you a ticket to his easy street
Cripple your mind until he get control
Your only solution and cure, is to pray
Just like his Halloween, trick or treat
Really all he is after is your soul

"When Satan demands you to bow down, say "no way Satan"
"When I pray to God, that is when I get on my knees"
"You are nothing but the old enemy"
"You will find out that God is the main man"
"You will be locked in Hell Forever and God will have the keys"
"Don't take a coat, it will be hot in eternity  

It is all in our hearts,head, and attitude, always try to keep a smile
When that old road gets rocky and rough, Jesus will be there
So it won't be the Devil you should meet
I promise you, he will get you that extra mile
There is no hidden charge, just an honest prayer
Bitter to sweet, lemons to lemonade
