Make your own he said In then out Good to bad Bad to good When does it balance out Attempt after attempt Wishful thinking Optimism stretched How do you make luck What's the recipe The secret ingredient I'm missing I've ran through my seasons Written down each amount Tried again using more and less I'm no 5star Michelin chef Only a home cook Aspiring to create a dish My family and me can enjoy For the remainder of our days Passing on the recipe I've acquired Is it wrong it's not my life I don't want to change anymore I don't wish for anything else Only the life I dream For the ones who helped me Get this far in my life Even when they don't know The wars I've fought alone I'm simply a general Wishing to feed his army So they can become another's sword When the firing squad receives me Luck they say Four leaf clovers Mythical pots of gold Awaiting at rainbows end Riddles to be solved to obtain it all So riddle me this Where does luck come from When luck is only a perception
