~ Optimism ~
I try to be optimistic
They tell me be realistic
I tell them that I am
This world is a sham
They accuse me of being lazy
I accuse them of being crazy
I live life for the day
You live life to make pay
Is it possible for me to be free?
While advancing in this society
When you must work hard to maintain
Yes, because reality is in my brain
While I must fulfill my duty
I also recognize lifeβs beauty
All the elements of nature around me
Love from friends and family who surround me
This way, at the end of the day
I can confidently say
That I am living life to the best
Even when I may seem stressed
This is the world we are given
It is ours to freely live in
Too many have lost sight of the true meaning
Simple life is at the essence of our being
