PROS AND CONS
PROS AND CONS
S.JENSEN © 2018
LIFE COMES AND GOES
NOTHING IS GUARANTEED
WHEN DOES ONE
SAY OK ITS TIME TO STOP
THAT ONE SHOULD
LET A DREAM JUST DIE
THAT IT ENDS AT THIS POINT
AND NOTHINGS GONNA
CHANGE SO LET IT BE
THAT NOTHING IS GETTING
BETTER SO STOP THE FIGHT
THAT ITS JUST HARDER
WHEN DOES ONE
ACCEPT ONES LOT IN LIFE
TO BE WHERE IT IS
AND SETTLE FOR THAT
ONLY HOW
DOES ONE WAIT
FOR A CHOPPING BLOCK
AXE TO FALL
OR DOES ONE KEEP GOING
KEEP FIGHTING
KEEP SAYING THE MIRE
CAN’T LAST FOREVER
THAT JUST ONE MORE
TRY WILL CHANGE IT ALL
I HAVE TAKEN CHANCES
BEFORE AND GOTTEN FARTHER
THAN I EVER THOUGHT
POSSIBLE
AND BEEN KNOCKED
BACK DOWN CONSTANTLY
FOR THE EFFORT AS WELL
BUT NEVER DO I GIVE IN
OR GIVE UP
OR SETTLE SAYING
THIS IS ALL THERE IS
SO I STOP TRYING
HOW CAN ONE JUST
SAY THIS IS IT
LOOKING BACK AT THE
COST OVER THE YEARS
TO WHERE I AM SITTING
NOW
AND HOW HARD ITS BEEN
YET THE ALTERNATIVE
WAS NOT A OPTION
NOR IS IT NOW
ANY DIFFERENT
REALLY
CAN I MAKE A LITTLE GO
FARTHER BY ACCEPTING
THAT THIS IS ALL THERE IS
THAT I JUST CAN’T GET OUT
OF THIS SITUATION
SO JUST SIT HERE
AND LET IT ROLL OVER
AND DRAG ME DOWN
WITH THE TIDES ROLLING IN
HOW CAN ONE JUST
DO THAT
OR DO I CHANCE TO MAKE
LIFE JUST A LITTLE BETTER
FOR A MAYBE
FOR A POSSIBILITY
THAT IT WON’T HAPPEN PROBABLY
BUT THIS IS WHAT
I HAVE DONE MY WHOLE
LIFE
DO I REGRET ANY THING
UP TO THIS POINT NO
I DON’T
THINGS DON’T ALWAYS
GO THE WAY WE EXPECT
OR DESIRE THAT IS A FACT
A FRIEND TODAY
SAID
YOU JUST GOT TO
REALIZE NOTHING IS
GETTING BETTER
THAT IT WON’T CHANGE
STOP TRYING YOU
JUST CHANCING
FOR SOMETHING THAT
WON’T DO ANY GOOD
BUT THEN THAT MEANS
THERE IS NO HOPE
I JUST CAN’T BELIEVE THAT
I MUST KNOW IN MY MIND
IN MY HEART
IN MY SOUL
THIS SITUATION ISN’T
GONNA LAST FOREVER
IT JUST CAN’T
IT WILL GO ONE WAY
OR THE OTHER
I THINK I WOULD RATHER
IT BE OF MY CHOICE
EVEN IF I AM WRONG
ITS MY CHOICE TO MAKE
IS IT NOT
YEAH IT SUCKS
AND ITS HARD
BUT IS IT IMPOSSIBLE
NO I CAN’T GIVE UP
TRYING FOR A BETTER
OUTCOME
THAT OPPORTUNITIES
COME FOR A REASON
AND THEY ALWAYS
PUSH ME FORWARD
ITS
GOT TO BE WORTHWHILE
ALL THIS WORK
HARD BLOODY WORK
I CAN’T JUST GIVE UP
NOW
THAT NEGATIVITY HAS TO JUST
GO AWAY
AND LEAVE ME BE
THERE IS NO HARM
IN TRYING
I HAVE TO TRY
I HAVE TO BELIEVE
ITS WORTH THE CHANCE
NO MATTER THE OUTCOME
ITS WHAT MAKES
LIFE WORTH LIVING
OH MUSE WHERE ARE YOU
WHEN I NEED YOU
TO PUSH ME FORWARD NOW
TO INSPIRE ME
TO KEEP TRYING
I AM SO WEIGHING
THE PROS AND CONS
OF THIS DECISION
NEVER HAVE I THOUGHT
ON SOMETHING
SO HARD IN MY LIFE
I HAVE ALWAYS
JUST UP AND DONE WHATEVER
IT WAS THAT
SPARKED MY HEART
SPARKED MY MIND
FILLED MY LIFE
ART IT IS MY LIFE
AND I CAN’T
GIVE UP
ON IT HELPING ME
HAVE A BETTER LIFE
I JUST CAN’T
ITS ALL I GOT
IF I FAIL THEN I FAIL
BUT ITS NO ONE
FAULT BUT MINE
THEN…
IT MAY NOT GO
ANYWHERE
IT MAY NOT DO
MUCH OF ANYTHING
AND IT MAY ALL
FLOP
AND BE FOR NOTHING
BUT I HAVE NEVER
EXPERIENCED
THAT KIND OF THING
ITS ALWAYS BEEN
HARD AS FUCK
BUT NEVER
A NEVER GAIN
ITS ALWAYS BEEN
A GAIN
EVEN A SMALL ONE
SO I HAVE TO TRY
RIGHT
I JUST HAVE
TO KEEP MY DREAM
ALIVE
TO KEEP GOING
WHILE I HAVE
LIFE TO LIVE
OR ITS NOT WORTH
A BLOODY THING
SO EVEN IF
HOPE IS EVIL
ITS ALL I GOT
AND ITS ALL
I AM GONNA
KEEP
SO NO I WILL NOT
JUST SIT HERE
AND SAY
THIS IS ALL
THERE IS TO MY LIFE
AND IT WON’T
GET BETTER
SCREW THAT
THOUGHT
SORRY ITS HOW I AM
HOW I ALWAYS HAVE BEEN
I HAVE TO
TAKE THAT CHANCE
THAT A LITTLE EFFORT
WILL PAY OFF
I HAVE WORK HARD
MY WHOLE LIFE
FOR A BETTER SITUATION
AND I CAN SAY
THAT IT ALWAYS HAS
RESULTED IN
A BETTER SITUATION
SO WHY WOULD
IT BE ANY DIFFERENT NOW
IT JUST CAN’T BE
I AM ON THE BOTTOM
AS ONE SAID
IN THE TRASH CAN
ANY HOW
SO WHY DON’T I MAKE
USE OF THAT BLOODY
TRASH BIN
AND UPGRADE
TO SAY A BETTER
LOOKING TRASH BIN
I DESERVE THAT
FOR ALL MY BLOODY
EFFORTS.
SO NO I WON’T
SIT HERE
AND SAY THIS IS
ALL I HAVE
AND ALL I WILL HAVE
CUS FRANKLY
THIS IS NOT HOW
I WANT TO BE
FOR THE REST OF
MY LIFE
NO
IF I GAVE UP BACK THEN
THEN I WOULDN’T BE
ALIVE TODAY
SO NO
I WON’T GIVE IN NOW
EITHER
I AM NOT READY
FOR THAT YET
YEAH ITS FINANCIAL
HELL FOR SURE
BUT I HAVE TO TRY
AND MAKE SOMETHING
WORK
I CAN’T JUST SIT HERE
AND SAY NOPE
NEVER SAT SO MUCH
IN MY LIFE
ON ONE THING
AND SAID NOPE
I TOOK THE CHANCES
AND SO I DO IT AGAIN
I PROMISED
SOMEONE
I WOULD NEVER
GIVE UP
AND SO
I WON’T.
I TRY SO I CAN SAY THIS MUCH
I TRIED...
I HAVE TO...
