Wrote this ridiculously early this morning. Based on my take of my current situation and what I've heard from others in my travels. So here it is.

*Needs a new title. Had one, but it was pretty gay.

Life is a game of tug and war
The loser falls in the pit
Covered in crap and miserable
You make a small shoe fit
But then years later
After the game has commenced
You wonder as you sit
Why you didn't pull
With all your strength
And its difficult to admit

Some will write a short story
Others a sentence or two
But others will write a novel
Based on "crazy" dreams pursued
If it makes your heart pound hard
And consumes your thoughts and mind
Then chase the dream nomadically
And satisfaction you'l eventually find

Make your own decisions
Choose the path you follow
Establish that you once existed
Refuse to feel lonely or hollow
No machine to take back time
And no pill to swallow
Don't sit and dream today
Cause there could be no tomorrow

Some of us will work 9 to 5
Others will be addicted to drugs
Some might flip burgers
And others will be gangsters or thugs
But its a short time we're given here
So its important not to waste
Strive to be the person
Who's existence can't be replaced

Some will write a short story
Others a sentence or two
But others will write a novel
Based on "crazy" dreams pursued
If it makes your heart pound hard
And consumes your thoughts and mind
Then chase the dream nomadically
And satisfaction you'l eventually find
Let your soul shine. Its better than sunshine. Its better than moonshine. Damn sure better than rain.
