Reasons Why You Should Try
When you were a baby and were learning to walk,
How many did you fall on your butt?
You got up despite not being able to talk,
You never got stuck in that rut.
When you were a child with hopes and dreams,
Did you chase the ones you wanted?
Did you make wishes upon soft moonbeams?
With a courageous heart undaunted.
When you were young did you ever fall in love?
Did the emotion overwhelm you?
Thanking the fates and blessing heaven above,
Because your dream had come true.
These are the reasons why you should try,
The things that will keep you going,
Never give up and so you should live up
To the expectations so you’ll keep growing.
And when there are dark days will you stay down?
Helpless like an infant outburst reverting,
Or will your resolve echo and resound,
Even though your heart is hurting.
Life is not perfect it’s constantly revolving,
You must learn to change as well,
Face the obstacles to keep evolving,
Or your heaven can turn into hell.
Remember the child in you that never gave up,
Get up and fight back and try it again,
Life is a challenge you have to face up
To strive to be happy until you transcend.
These are the reasons why you should try,
The things that will keep you going,
Never give up and so you should live up
To the expectations so you’ll keep growing.
