More Valuable Than Pure Gold

There are times when this life 
Can really weigh us all down 
Moments of happiness are just a few and 
If you ask me there are not many of those really. 

Life most of the time is like a merry go around 
Is like a circus and all of us are just the drama clowns 
 We need to be careful of where and how we walk 
And also need to be weary of the way that we talk. 

There are so many great things in life that we can do 
Sometimes little things we do are more important than big ones 
At times we tend to forget how to really bond together 
With family and friends and they're such a great part of you. 

Life is too precious and short to waste it and that you well know 
And family and friends are more valuable to me than pure gold.
