How far will you go? What paths will you make?
Does your age group create? Or does it eliminate?
Will you rise to the top? Pulling out all stops?
Mom and Dad pave your way? Do they still "have the say"?
Is where you live a key? Does it set you free?
Who will hold out their hands? To cushion your fall?
Pick you up? After giving your all?
So much has changed? It's a different world today?
Are the words different? Melody the same?
Where did it get others? Did they survive "life's game"?
Will you walk or run? Stand still or move around?
What's your purpose? Will you finish or "drop out"?
Same Old Song. With a different beat. We all carry around.
