Life is an intersting journey,
You never know where it'll take you.
Peaks and valleys, twists and turns,
You can get the surprise of your life.
Sometimes on the way to where your going,
You may think 'this is the worst time of my life',
But you know what?
At the end of the road, through all the adversity,
You get where ever you wanted to be, you remember,
Whatever don't kill you, make you stronger.
And all the adversity was worth it.
On your way to the top, you'll do anything,
But how do you get your life back when you get there?
Yeah, that's my dilemma - Clifford "T.I" Harris
