Age
Age

       From the minute we are born,
We begin the process of dying
We must crawl before we can walk
But nothing stops us from trying

As we become teenagers with all
Of our hormones raging
The furthest thing from our mind
Is the simple fact of our aging

At some point in our lives we get
To a point that we think we’re getting old
But mindset and attitude can affect your
Direction in your way in life sevenfold

If you think old you’ll be old and if you think
Young you’ll be young, it’s a state of mind
For I say age is just a number so live life
The way you wish to be defined

Act your age, oh no not me
I’ll never give up in the fight
Until the day I die I’ll live like KISS
And Rock & Roll all nite

Like a train at bullet speed
Running on the narrow gauge
I myself may be standing on the
Edge of sixty but I refuse to age
