Hey everyone, life's not as bad as it may seem, well when I'm feeling fine
Because you've got your friends, and I've got mine
You don't have to be rich to feed your soul
You just have to make it through life and reach some kind of goal
Many times have I been on the brink of destruction, the bay of sadness
Never thought I'd see some gladness, or a stroke of happiness
Thought I'd always be caught up in my own little world, my own little mess
But now I've seen some new faces and I've been to other places
I've seen what else life could be, which might be a strange thing you see
For someone my age but it's true what they say, life is all a stage
You just have to go by the flow and take it easy, you know what I mean?
Because now, now I'm feeling fine, I'm not gonna hide, I'll do my best to shine
Because throughout life you don't have to be rich to feed your soul
Just make a plan, some kind of scheme and complete your goal
Don't get lost on the shore of despair, I've been there too
It's not a pleasant place, so just remember what you want to do
Follow your dreams, because life as it seems,
Seems like crap and Hell and sometimes we're just forced to say "oh well,"
But hey, don't sweat it, don't always listen to what others say
Swim yourself up to shore, no don't make it a chore
Just keep your head held high, and be victorious of the tide
Don't let the weight of your past be your anchor, or keep you down
Just turn your frown upside down, don't ever let yourself drown
Because life can be Hell, but it's your soul you cannot sell
So keep your friends and keep your dreams
Life's not so bad when you're not alone
Just keep your soul alive and for your dreams you must strive
And if others can't understand, well, hey, at least you're not trapped in your very own Hell!
