Move On
“do as I say,
not as I do”
ain’t that
what I always say
to you
“do as I say,
not as I do”
I’m for real
though
kid
I don’t ever want you to be
like me
I want you to be
like you
I want you to be
free
and unafraid
to live your life
full out
living in fear
is no way to live
at all
some people
just exist
subside
and find it hard
to face their fears
there can be many reasons for it
too many
but excuses are excuses
make no excuses for your life
and how you live it
take responsibility when you’re wrong
and move on
if somebody wrongs you
I hope you figure out how to forgive ‘em
and move on
life is not black and white
it’s not just good
and it’s not just bad
look for the silver
lining
understand the situation
whatever it is
and think
don’t ever nod
if you don’t agree
don’t ever laugh
if you don’t find it funny
don’t shrink
or diminish
or forget
why you’re here
that you’re never your career
or just somebody’s something
you have a purpose
a gift to give
a gift you were given
a way to make it better
than you found it
make it better
please, make it better
and move on
