My So-Called Life

I say, to live is the rarest thing in the world
Because most people only exists, and that is all
Sometimes the questions are complicated, the answers are simple
Teaching me hard lessons, each moment I fall.

I make mistakes, at times I'm out of control
Sometimes hard to handle, doing nothing at all
Seems like I'm living in some kind of prison wall
And the crime is hating the life I had to the core.

But then I come to realize, life is much like a song
In the beginning there is mystery, in the middle, full of emotions
In the end there is confirmation, to figure out it goes on and on
And what is amazing is, when I learn to strongly move on.

Life isn't about finding myself, but creating it at my best,
Forget about those mess, and let GOD do the rest
Find the brightest light in every shadow of darkness
When times are tough, I dare to be the toughest.

I only live once, by doing it once, is just enough
Like the zit had become, I'll be at the top
It blotted out in these words to sum up
Everything I've learned in life - it goes on and I'll fight back!
