One Chance

You don't deserve, even one. Not one chance. You think this is fun? One risk here, one risk there. I'll tell you one thing, life's not fair. You say, you almost got hit by a bus? It wont happen again, you can trust. Cheated death? You should have not. You see that life, is all you've got. If you come close to, dying or death. I'll put you right back there, with a knife to your breast. You think you're an exception, you think you're all that. Thinking like that, made you die where you sat. There is no excuse, for the chance that you took. This wouldn't have happened, if you'd known where to look. If you'd been more careful, thought before act. Maybe your skin, would still be intact. Yeah you survived it, got through it for sure. But how many more times? Two, three, or four? You beg for your life, for me to leave it to fate. Well that's one chance, I'm not willing to take. If it were up to me, you'd already be dead. I'd put some bullets, all through your head. Sometimes I think, I should leave it to fate. But then your deaths, would be too late. Is one chance all you're wanting? Is that why your upset? Well I'm sorry my friend, that's one chance you won't get.
