Fulfill
Why do we get up
Why do we try
Why do we keep living
If our purpose is to die
How does the sun shine
But with the clouds there is shade
And how can a memory burn so bright
And Then one day just fade
I ask you this like I ask myself
Is what I'm doing for my own wealth
Or could I do more to help someone else
There is a reason for the sun
There is a reason for the shade
There is a reason for our memories
And for why they go away
These thing in life make us grow
They help us see, they help us know
Why live life if we can't do something real?
I chose to live a life that I can fulfill
