"Value everything when even the simplest things seem insignificant"
That's what he said to me
At the time I couldn't understand it
I suppose in my adolescent state
The world to me
Just didn't look fake
As I grew older things would change
A wiser man I became
More open minded and willing
Yet all at the same time still a hundred percent me
Even so I couldn't prevent everything
And I can't save everybody
From the destiny we all seem to fight
So I lost some friends, family, and material things
All for the life we have to live
And every day I wake up to give
A little more of myself to fade away
Secretly counting down the days till I lay
Yeah I lost some friends but it's not the end of it
Everyday I feel like I'm being tested
New day's with anticipation to a lesson
Trying to live life the best way I can
Cause even though I may be losing everyday
Even if I'm failing with bad grades
And if I'm never loved
Perhaps maybe never able to get a hug
Then I'll still find a way
Somehow I'll feel the feeling
Of the way things should be...
Nothing is to insignificant to not care for
Everything as simple as it may be
Is worth as much as that penny in the street
