Make it, grow it, feel it Love it, work it, do it Say it, mean it, be it Hold it, caress it, endure it Question it, solve it, understand it Nurture it, direct it, protect it Smile for it, live for it, die for it Cry for it, blush for it, never deny it
So many little tests Presented with we contend Understanding the risks Of the chances we take To take that chance Should we prevail or fail Some failures beat us Down Into the depths And we may never be the same again Some successes also Make us never the same again Because we've gotten so high off of it We cannot see straight I've made a lot of money before And it has made me arrogant, ungrateful, and wasteful I've also been broke and poor It made me more appreciative, understanding, and productive The middle ground that works for all of us Is an individual thing Prevail or Fail Is nothing more than a perspective Life is a game we play with no clear winners But if you keep love in your heart It doesn't matter how broke or rich you are You have prevailed
This reoccurring problem That continues to trouble me Is fighting my own destiny Mostly It is because of other's expectations Of what they think I'm supposed to do with my life But their perspective is not mine Maybe what I do Isn't going to make everyone happy But I need to focus and search for What will make me happy I need to accept my destiny And choose to be happy with it
There were times When I was young I believed in magic In superheroes Santa Claus A fine line between Right and wrong Summer vacation Seemed to last forever But never too long Now As an adult and a man My idea of what magic is Has changed entirely Even more special now Than through the eyes of a child I believe in possibilities I call it magic When I touch someone's heart When I see a baby smile An old couple holding hands My son hugging me Magic exists It is everything that is beautiful in the world
Yours was the sweetest touch I broken upon your grace Never had I ever seen such beauty As my eyes lain upon the sweetness of your face You got me exactly where I was weak So open to me You shared your pain and secrets I saw you for what you were And I wanted more I gave you myself No holds barred You kept lightly touching me When we first met Sending vibrations through my all I kept telling myself It was an accident Even though your intentions were obvious Our first kiss Made me forget all others before I remember it every time I think of you Yours was the sweetest touch You got me where I was weak Unlike any other I fully submit to you Your touch broke down my walls You stole my heart in the middle of the night Feeling your lips touch mine That first time The memory still causes me to pause And I still catch myself holding my breath Lost in that moment Yours was the sweetest touch You got me where I was weak
