If only you would listen
If you would just take the time…
Look and see that there’s a reason
And to this life there is a rhyme

Rivers do not have a choice,
To flow or stop in their tracks
But we have been given a chance
To color life white or black

You’ve got a pen and eraser
So what will you choose to do?
You can make black marks on life,
Or erase them—it’s up to you.
