Tempting Fate

For those who dare to tempt their fate
Who choose to share their love or hate
How can they bear their peace of mind
If all they care gets left behind

Maybe they sought to get ahead
When many bought the words they said
Till they got caught in all their lies
Was all for naught when all trust dies

But those that chose to plan their schemes
And those that rose to reach their dreams
You know it shows for all to see
The world bestows their destiny
