Analysis of another year



Another year
Another chance
To overcome
The circumstance

Another year
Another chance
For you to rise
And to advance

Another year
Another choice
Stay miserable
Perhaps rejoice

Another year
Another choice
Remain unheard
Or share your voice

Another year
To clean your slate
To sell your soul
Or celebrate
