Life, As we call it

Once you are born Into this big, big world

You enter a confusing maze-

Something you need to figure out

Life, as we call it

Once upon a time

You are just a child

The next minute, an adult

With a big responsibility at hand –

Life, as we call it

One day you are free

Like a bird flying high

The next day you are pulled down

Further into complexities –

Life, as we call it

One minute you are so sure

Of what to expect next

The next minute you are thrusted

Back to square one –

Life, as we call it

One minute you are happy

Of all the wonders around you

The next minute you are pushed back

To reality that might be nasty –

Life, as we call it

Life, as we call it

Might be unfair at most times

Somehow that is what makes it exciting

Giving us the power to deal with,

Life, as we call it
