Oh why my friend do you give up so When life gave such a promising hand With your brains and smarts you could but go To any place in all the land Why squander gifts which you hold inside Your mentality reflects only shame You say you don't care, though we know you lied Playing life like a frivolous game I shake my head at you, my friend My trusted captain my first mate All I wish to lend Is advice for when you turn your next bend Don't waste your talents Or shrug it off with no care For you will die a regretting soul Wishing, you could have done so much more.
