Life''s Journey

Begin your life's journey

Starting high or starting low

Who cares how you begin?

What matters is where you go

Challenges await you

Some will kick you down

Rise again to conquer hate

Let your victory resound

You are something special

To someone, I guarantee

So live for those who love you most

And quell your misery

Maybe you haven't found them

Those people who will love you

Keep trying, friend; they're near and far

Someone will see your value

Continue the journey

And lift up your sword

Take part in life's tourney

You'll hardly be bored

So much to see and do

So much to learn and try

You'll learn to know what's true

And see through empty lies

Glory in gathered wisdom

But remember, you're a fool

Lest you trip in your own kingdom

When pride takes ahold of you

Reach the young so desperate

And lift the orphans up

For as you tend to others

You'll see they'll fill your cup

Close your eyes to others

Refuse to feel their pain

You'll lose potential brothers

And nothing will be gained

All your choices define yourself

Step to darkness or to light

Whether standing wise or playing the fool

God observes the sight

Finish strong, learning much

Tally up your actions

What was good; what was not?

Time to make transactions

A ticket to His Kingdom

A slide to burning lakes

Did you look to unfurled wisdom?

Did you feed upon the hate?

It's over now

You made it

Where did you end up?

What you put in

Is what you get

When all is said and done
