Take Control

Under the heavens..
we question and learn. 
We love and make friends..
sometimes we yearn. 
It's all about the good times..
and the hard times too. 
We all make mistakes..
there's nothing you can do. 

Finding the right answer. 
There is always a doubt.
We desire have needs..
we figure it out. 

We all have a way..
when the going gets rough. 
We stand up and face it..
we have to be tough. 

There's wisdom inside you.
Just think it through. 
Problems come up. 
Have a new point of view. 

Gathering strength..
that comes from within. 
Takes courage and love..
for ones-self..let it in. 

Decide you can make it. 
Reach for that goal. 
It is your life..
now take control.
