you don't come from the streets
and not know how to survive
and you can't live your life right
without knowing how to forgive
it's not simple nor is it complex
it's a process some things ain't
meant to be unbent don't bend
over backwards trying to change
the shape of things don't get
bent out of shape life's uncertain
like when earth shakes in the
wake of a peaceful day it's
enough to wake the dead
sometimes we don't land on
our feet we sometimes fall
on our head still we tend to
survive the fall often a few
screws come loose but it
don't take nothing to drive
a few nails to keep from
fallen apart it's something
about the heart that keeps
on pumping through it all
it's what's inside that makes
us who we are we could
learn a lot from a star
its gone shine regardless
