You need to remember,
You can never reach the heavens,
If you were there all along.

You have to start below,
To jump high,
And reach the stars.

It is better that way,
Than to start all the way up,
And hit the earth, hard.

Life is just something that confuses,
Both me and you.
Sometimes, you fall when you’re up,
But when you least expect it,
You rise again.

But when you are reining the heavens,
You fall.
But when you are so close to giving up,
You rise.

You should always keep in mind,
That you can never stay in one place for too long.

Life has its ups and downs.
Allow it to bring you down,
And it will allow you to take flight.

It’s tough,
But that’s just how it is.
