The Load

Life is about learning to carry our load And weaving the threads of our path For, the world is so profound and broad And we can't build a glory out of wrath We must learn to be still and chill out For, in comfort, fairly well, we can think And to wipe all the shadows of doubt For, success lies afar from those who blink We must learn to take charge of our own Without blaming others for our wrong We must learn to hone hard our stone And choose wise where we really belong "What we really need to learn as humans is to take responsibility for ourselves."
