Second Chances
He never really thought about it nor did he see reason to care
Life was about true grit and he knew damn sure it wasn't fair
As he had made it this far and never needed anybody's hand
He didn't just wish upon a star but everything he had planned
As he was driving along, he suddenly jammed on the brakes
Something had went wrong and really that is all it ever takes
It was a really horrible scene and he almost didn't survive
He thought the light was green, this on just a simple drive
When the man did finally awake it was a very slow process
Let there be no mistake many issues he had time to address
See the man had clinically died as the doctors tried to revive
As once again they tried, but that is not why today he is alive
He won't talk about his own story but today he's very different
About seeing some Glory, I don't even know what he even meant
He"s not the way he used to be, no he's just not the same guy
But now he is actually nice to me so who am I to ask him why
