How To Live Your Life

directions on how to live your life
this is what you must do
make 1 million dollars
and turn it into two
graduate from college
take that test
major in the job
you care for best
instead of being heard on radios and cd
try to be seen on tv and dvds
i guess find your self a husband or wife
and that is how you live you life

My destination

My destination is life at the end of the line
My destination is graduation when it’s time
My destination is my diploma I bet I get mine
My destination is to stop with the lay back being cool
My destination is to reach to top of the school
When you reach the top I want you to look over and have in your hand a four leaf clover
As you step on the edge and start to look down turn around fall back make no sound
So the next destination you reach is the ground

Trust Me Or Let Me Be

so you say you dont believe me
well i want to move our

so what i look like father
now punish me for riding a bike
i just went to visit my dad
whom i havent seen in weeks
your yellin like i left the country
but its four blocks down the street
i knew you didnt like me
i could tell from the start
so without like there is no love
leaving no room for a heart
you built a heart less monster
