Do you feel they'll like you better,
if you act the same
Do you think people will respect you,
when you act insane
Whatever you choose
The choice is yours
You can do better
Just change you're course
You don’t have to do what others do
or say what they say
Find that wisdom in yourself
And just walk away

Do you think he'll find you prettier,
with all that makeup on
Do you believe lying to yourself,
is better than doing wrong
Whatever you choose
The choice is yours
You can get better
Just don’t get forced
Into giving yourself like others do
Playing like they play
Find that wisdom in yourself
And make him wait

Do you think your child will respect you,
when you scream at him
Do you think she'll be able to trust,
now that you've taken everything
Whatever you choose
The choice is yours
Choose to do better
Change you're course
Be aware of the things you do
And the things that you say
Hoping you find that wisdom
That’s what I pray

It doesn't have to be this way
Your life is your own
Don’t throw it all away
