Like a Thief In the Night

Like a theif in the night 
Never trust any one 
To make you usefull 

Never depend on any one
To make you responsible 

Believe in your ability 
Believe in your self 
By your self to make 
Your self who you want 
Yourself to be 

If not by the time 
You realise by yourself 
That you never live 
To build your life 
By yourself 
It will be 
Like the thief in the night
