I always do everything that’s different from the rest Never finish what I start, how can I be the best I live my life from day to day, wonder in my mind What could have I become… if I really tried Memories is all I have, with all my hopes and dreams In a land of make believe, Nothings what it seems I guess a man is measured by what he has to hold I who have nothing…Like a broken mold I used to have some promise but squandered every chance All the years of wasting…are nothing but a glance In my life I found it hard to settle for the best What I thought was better…was always something less Mistakes, regrets, indecisive and with doubt I thought that I fit in…I was merely just left out It’s easy to divert the blame on reasons why you fail It’s harder to accept the blame with failure on this scale Regain your edge; make a stand, no sorrow without fault Make your dreams accomplishments, or let it go for naught Can you do it all alone and do you have the will? All the negativity has promise of it still Now it’s time to start a new, you never lost your way To believe in those who want to help, fall victim to the prey So keep your focus straight ahead and leave the past behind What’s mine is yours is not the truth…what’s yours is never mine Joe Callari
