O' my life.

Life, it's like a rollercoaster ride.

Moving up and down,

giving goosebumps to my hide.

 

Life has it's own aspects,

to which we pay our due respects.

They teach us not to hate and to be considerate.

 

It's filled with problems and solutions,

Making our hearts make new resolutions.

 

A change is required in every step.

Sometimes here or sometimes there.

 

Life gives us benefits.

It's just how we look at them.

It gives us friends with benefits,

it's just how we choose them.

 

Life is short,

but it's journey is very very long.

Don't worry be strong.

On this roller-coaster ride, come along...
