SUCCESS
Is it wrong or is it right
Is your future dark or is it bright
That may depend on where you start
Or it could be determined by the size of your heart
Some judge success on the money you've got
Others by looks are you attractive or not
For me that certainly wouldn't be the case
To me success is making the world a better place
Treating everyone as equals no matter their race
Life is about putting a smile on another's face
Everybody has a different story and past
No one really knows how long a relationship will last
Cherish the company around you nobody wants to be alone
If you see a Hungry dog give the pup a bone
Enjoy life to the fullest and take it day by day
Because you never know when it is your time to pass away
During your time on earth there is so much to see and do
But when it's over all that matters is how people remember you
Learn from your mistakes experience my friend is key
With a solid work ethic you can become anything you want to be
You can choose to ignore all the words I say
But all will realize the truth one special day
All you can do is give your absolute best
At least now you know the true meaning of success

And then, I'll never fall.
