Worth a try

Life doesn't slow down for you to catch up.
Life is not your friend,it's the enemy with a set up.
It will chew you up and spit you out.
And go back for round two, no doubt.
You're not the only one though.
Shit, we all get a slice.
Rat race motherfucker, you're either the cat or the mice.
You find yourself laying on your bed,
Contemplating about the future.
You're the wound and life's the suture.
Looking back at all the shit you've been through.
Damn, motherfuckers don't have a clue.
You get up and battle life each day,
Nobody asking you how you feel, are you okay?
Truth is, we're all battling our own demons in this complex beauty call life.
Some people selling their souls for a piece of paradise.
When things get rough,
You can either strive or give up.
Only the strong will survive, but remember to live doesn't mean you're alive.
Two steps forward, four steps back
Twice as hard if the color of your skin is black.
Unfair?.... maybe
But what good does it do to be a crybaby.
We weren't given a choice when we were spit out into this world, but the clock is ticking
Every second counts and everything we do whether right or wrong it all amounts.
So cry when you have to cry and smile when you have to smile.
Life will beat you down.
But at least it's worth a try.
