Do the things that make you happy and free
and never sell yourself short for the extra money.
Be yourself and know who you want to be
Know the world around you and what you really see.
Be aware of the system here to swallow you whole.
Remember that you can never forget about your soul.
Be profound to help the unwilling to see
and remind them of the painful reality.
Never see the world as sparkly and new
and know that your choices are between and few.
Grasp at your spot and claim your stake
for your life is here, its all about what you make.
Make it a life that you’d be proud to pass around
so don’t pass it off on an act of the profound.
