I have gone through life, But It had no purpose, A meaningless stride, Nothing beneath surface, I have had no goal, No dreams, no ambition, Life settled in stone, A fool on an audition, In that mindless state, I have lived for years, I altered my fate, Got rid of my fears, I'm glad I kept going, Glad I haven't stopped, This tree keeps on growing, This soul never dropped, I wanted to stop, My meaningless stride, I wanted to stop, This life with no pride, There was an option, But I never took it, Life's filled with emotion, But I do not look it, I never thought of killing myself, That was a way I never entailed, I never thought to hang on a shelf, I never made a plan so detailed, I never thought to jump from a height, I never thought to fall to my death, To fall from a place where one could take flight, I never thought to take my last breath, There was no point of going that way, That's why I chose to live one more day, A day in my life, meaningless at times, A day in my life, a place full of lies, Now here I stand, No more beneath surface, Please give me a hand, I have found my purpose, For I found my cure, For it is to teach, For it's to make pure, What others can't reach.

I have gone through life, But It had no purpose, A meaningless stride, Nothing beneath surface, I have had no goal, No dreams, no ambition, Life settled in stone, A fool on an audition, In that mindless state, I have lived for years, I altered my fate, Got rid of my fears, I'm glad I kept going, Glad I haven't stopped, This tree keeps on growing, This soul never dropped, I wanted to stop, My meaningless stride, I wanted to stop, This life with no pride, There was an option, But I never took it, Life's filled with emotion, But I do not look it, I never thought of killing myself, That was a way I never entailed, I never thought to hang on a shelf, I never made a plan so detailed, I never thought to jump from a height, I never thought to fall to my death, To fall from a place where one could take flight, I never thought to take my last breath, There was no point of going that way, That's why I chose to live one more day, A day in my life, meaningless at times, A day in my life, a place full of lies, Now here I stand, No more beneath surface, Please give me a hand, I have found my purpose, For I found my cure, For it is to teach, For it's to make pure, What others can't reach.
