People say to me life is short but then they say to me what do you want to be how many kids will you have do you know where youre going? people say live life to the fullest then they waste my time monday through friday 6am till 3pm then afterwards they want me to spend hours doing more work life's precious we say another cigarette away reject another dream of ours put a posionringed bottle to my lips its not okay until im 21 because then is when life is no longer as precious as before. so we arrest our dreams and trap them daily inside our most basic routines let the precious time dwindle away just so we can look back and say lifes short so lets spend our priceless seconds and hours and value them at 12$ an hour because it is so precious to us
