Life But How To Live It -

Life can get bumpy so get ready for a ride

Think you got a plan but let me confide

Got a few friends? You're luckier than most

On this map of life it's easy to get lost



Make a wrong turn and it could cost you a lot

But let's hope you get more than one shot

But you got to try and get off your ass

Sometimes when you fall down it just means you've got some class



There are no promises anyone can keep

No one will cry for you, maybe your momma' will weep

Be who you are let the players play their game

Being real is its own reward and it could keep you sane



You might just get to win some And there are so many more you lose

At least when you earn something You know you paid your dues

And if something comes too easy You'll lose it just the same

Remind yourself there is no sense Trying to lay the blame



So just remember you can run but you can't ever hide

Choose your choices well they are yours to decide

Be who you are and as they say, keep it real

There's nothing very long that you can conceal



Life seems long but it goes by really quick

Be a gentle person and don't be a lousy prick

Be grateful and treat others the way you want to be treated

Don't be sour grapes 'cause every now and then we all get cheated



Life's a vibrating string, an illusion at best

Try to get it better each time and forget the rest

There will always be pain - but it will pass

Try to enjoy it 'cause it goes by so fast 



Make a wrong turn and it could cost you a lot

But let's hope you get more than one shot

But you've got to try and get off your ass

Sometimes when you fall down it just means you got some class



Life's a vibrating string, an illusion at best

Try to get it better each time and forget the rest

There will always be pain - but it will pass

Try to enjoy it 'cause it goes by so fast
