Try

Try to be a good guy every day, Try to laugh at what they say, Try to bow your head and pray, When life is all in disarray. Try not to care so much today, Try a smile and forget it’s gray, Try loving where you sit and lay, Forgive myself, I might just may. Try molding life without much clay, Try keeping unkind thoughts at bay, Try whipping sadness into puree, I’ll always know that I’ll be okay. Try not to work and try to play, Try not to allow madness to slay, Try not to drink and smoke a jay, Try to leap up and shout hurray. Try to do it for Miss Mae, Try to earn your father’s day, Try to learn the proper way, Peace served onto you by tray. Try not to let the past replay, Try to have them want to stay, Try not to let your ego spray, The darkness you should further stray. Try not to push them all away, Try not to let the seesaw sway, Try to let the sunshine ray, Shine bright upon this brand new day.
