SPUR

Fed up when I get up already rested up 
I am sped up tear this tread up to shred up
I’m choking you still smoking 
cigarettes, And vaping you joking
Laughing at me as I am being all I can be
Was not in the Army just getting warmed
Up systematically
Forget about physical appearances 
‘tis a Lifestyle adherences 
grab my vitamins on Clearances 
training insurance it is
Release me from the cage
only a number Is my age 
shoot this rhyme like a 12 gage
Flip the page 
are you engaged?
I left T.C. to be all I can be 
in the U.S.M.C.
The infantry 
they taught me 
how to train
How to shoot embrace the pain
Endure Hardship resilience in the brain for gain
With deep desire I am for hire
to light The flame under your seat on fire
Hear is what you need to do
your way is Not working and its through
No more staying up to late
or binge drinking
For crying sake and give thought to caloric intake
You are older now more mature 
Past your forties now that’s for sure 
Like it or not physical training is the cure
How can you make it to your eighties?
If you’re currently frail, weak and lazy?
Daily activity adaptive creativity 
Infuse positivity no more negativity
Little by little resolve as you whittle
That frame to strength gyrate from brittle and 
You will delay entering the hospital.
Discharge this instruction you begin the construction
Fortify strength through production 
End of discussion
