Bouncing Back again

Jonathan A. Lacey 1987 (Texas)



Do you often wake up wondering if life is real or just a joke?
And you want somebody to wake you up, even with a simple poke,
CUZ life has put you through more than one test,
And you have done things that you know haven't been the best,
Then let me tell you something, you are the one with the power,
To change your life around in just a simple hour,
So don't give up CUZ I can tell you this for certain,
Your life ain't over till you decide to close the curtain.
