Life

Together we stand, together we fall
Our life is one and one for all
We face highs and lows on an adventurous blow
For what we do is all we know
Laugh and cheer with the ones we love
Combine our strengths and fly high above
Grow strong and smart and make the world yours
Don't take the shortcuts, take the detours
Try your hardest, don't ever give in
Trace the footsteps of where others have been
Play your melody so the world can hear
Always be listening and never mishear
Along your journey, this is the key
Always be positive and remember your free
Because of this, people all call it
A very short word, and it is LIFE
