All or nothing, no hand to fold
do your best, work hard, do what you're told
Plan to be followed, plan to be made
In whom do you trust? Yourself? Your faith?
Consider each moment with care and grace
gauge yourself slowly and never lose face
taken from you, each piece you held dear
friends, family, locations that are near
as all slips away, as ties come undone
wallow no more and rise with the sun
