S.O.A.P

Crying all day because I worry about tomorrow

Heartaches every other day because my soul is full of sorrow

I let little things bother me thats not supposed to

I wish I could kill this insecure bug with my shoe

Fake family, fake friends equal fake life, how could i have been so nieve

We'll help you do this and we'll help you do that, I dislike liars so I just leave

I should have saw this coming like truck headlights in the street

It just looks as if the stomping coming from my feet doesn't match the life beat

Yeah thats what it looks like, but that's not what it is

Someone great told me in so many words life will shake and bubble, but the bubbles will 
go down and go away because all of it is just fizz

He is so great and never really gloats

Thats when I realized he's S.O.A.P

It may seem funny or even crazy but I want to grow up and be just like him

His words of wisdom makes me feel "Above the Rim"

He is my crutches when I'm falling fast

He gets rid of anyone and anything in my life he believes is trash

Picking myself up and dusting myself off

Thanking him and hugging myself soft

"Positive outlook means positive things in life" I'll remember that, it's the key to 
happiness

Today is the day I am Stepping Over All Pettiness (S.O.A.P)
