You watch the clock, tick its life away,
You drift in and out as it kills the day.
You look in the mirror and think how life is tough,
You want to lay down, to die, to just give up.
But you know you can not,
You must make this next step.
No matter how far behind,
There is only one way to get ahead.
You want to quit because life is tough,
But you must make this next step,
Boy do not give up.
Take life in stride, just don't give up.
Because surviving is key no matter how tough.
You should always try to carry on and forward,
Because it might just be enough.
