Life Is To Precious

Every day we are chosen
To be awaken
People misinterpret life
They got it mistaken
They forgot their purpose 
Didn't seek for the vision 
Held accountable for their doing
Everything comes with a decision
Its up to whether you decide
Should you crawl
Or just hide
Afraid of this ride
Inside your just going
And sometimes it feels like 
There's no controlling 
Just unfolding the cloth 
Peeling a piece at a time 
So of the world
Your soul is becoming blind
Treating mankind so bad 
The world we are living in is beyond sad
My heart goes out to all the lost souls 
They really are lost
Everything comes with a price
But at what cost
What cost will it be?
To live 
People are being cruel
They are out here to kill
This is real
People dont understand
We hold the power to our destiny
In our own hands 
Life is precious ,yes it is
Lets our raise our girls to be queens
Our guys to be kings 
In the midst 
Of your battles
Except the self esteem 
Life is precious ,yes it is
Got to practice 
On how to forgive
Life is precious 
Life is pure
Life is also a cure 
A cure for healing, a cure for hope
A cure for belief
No matter how much you have to tote 
Fragile as a glass 
Life can past you by
What do you do
When the possibilities have exhausted
You exist 
You dont dismiss
The thought 
Of success
You give your all
And try your best
That's all you can do 
Be who you are 
Remain true 
Lend a helping hand
It could be you
But its not
You are blessed beyond measures 
Or have you forgot 
Order the steps 
Of the Lord
And you can be on this earth
Living according
To his word
Not acting off 
Of only what you've heard
But what you believe
You see with God we all can achieve 
This may come as a surprise ??
No need to
Reject this
Get it together 
Because life is to precious
