LIKE IT OR NOT

The friends you thought you had will soon be gone
if you don’t agree with the world you will always be wrong
all of the sudden you find yourself withdrawn

Like it or not

Someday we all have to say goodbye
we all swear we wont cry
watching loved ones all around us die

Like it or not

In this life you only get one shot
a quick choice to run with it or just sit and rot
but eventually you’ll find yourself tangled in a knot

Like it or not

The mistakes you make will act as you steppingstones
look back in awe at how much you have grown
but also realize how many chances you have blown

Like it or not

In this world there is sin everywhere you turn
we all act like it’s none of our concern
cover up our mistakes and never learn

Like it or not

This is the way the world works
every one has a beast within that lurks
only visible in our deceitful smirks

Like it or not
this is the world we live in

All right, now this is a piece I can relate too( I think everyone can ), and I loved to read.

But my favorate line? The grand finale
This is the world we live in.
Cause' ain't that the TRUTH...

Preach on man.
Cheers.
