Or Life can be great,
It depends on your choices
And what lies in your fate.

You can be loyal and caring,
Live life with laughter and love,
And do just what is wanted
From the heavens looking out from above.

Or you could be different,
Rebellious, Regretful, and sly,
Hurting yourself and others
When you cheat and lie.

It’s all up to you
And the decisions you make,
What you do with your time
And the friends that you take.

So now I hope as you go
Through life knowing this,
You make the right choices
And don’t regret what you miss.
