The Older I get

The older I get With each day passing by The farther my motion is set To the tune of what good come nigh. The older I get The better I strive to become; To rise above the neglect And to have things work in uniform. The older I get The deeper I became bequeathed With the truth of how life work And of how things became diluted. The older I get The clearer life to me is Of trials,of friendship and hatred And of people who had me dissed. The older I get The more responsibilities are shouldered to me For I ought make some consent To things expected from me. The older I get The more my ages aches Keeping me a call at Bay Of the home with the sages. The older I get The nearer I am to the grave Though of the day I cannot bet Yet it's a truth I cannot waive .
