Young Life
Try to realize what you are,
Try to plan our your life
Get yourself together
Try and settle down.
Don't try to be someone you're not,
Yet be perfect, and make your parents proud,
Which we know for a curious mind,
Is harder than what you are to find.
We are not all knowing,
We don't have all the answers
To know what our lives hold for us
And that is up to a greater force,
So let it all hang out,
Have a blast,
You only got one chance!

Try to realize what you are,
Try to plan our your life
Get yourself together
Try and settle down.
Don't try to be someone you're not,
Yet be perfect, and make your parents proud,
Which we know for a curious mind,
Is harder than what you are to find.
We are not all knowing,
We don't have all the answers
To know what our lives hold for us
And that is up to a greater force,
So let it all hang out,
Have a blast,
You only got one chance!
