"While There is Still Time" There is a certain path in life Which one should just ignore For in the end is surely strife And bears a false allure The natural state is human sweat The natural way is to procure Of this there is no secret kept Real people must endure The slippery slope draws us in Bad ways in time the more It gets much harder to break with sin And a soul that's soft inure This world's riches one could drain And live forever in perfect health But that treasure would less obtain Than one who conquers just one's self

While There is Still Time
"While There is Still Time" There is a certain path in life Which one should just ignore For in the end is surely strife And bears a false allure The natural state is human sweat The natural way is to procure Of this there is no secret kept Real people must endure The slippery slope draws us in Bad ways in time the more It gets much harder to break with sin And a soul that's soft inure This world's riches one could drain And live forever in perfect health But that treasure would less obtain Than one who conquers just one's self
