FAILURE

 

December 17^th

 

 

“Failure”

 

 

I have been a failure

In this world

In every walk of life

 

But when I was down

While I was out

I learned

Through the school of hard knocks

 

I learned what is important

It’s God

I learned what is important

It’s love

I learned what is important

It’s kindness

I learned what is important

It’s mercy and forgiveness

 

I still go to

The school of hard knocks

I know I will never graduate

Because there is no end to them

 

I did learn a few things

Along the way

But I still go to

The school of hard knocks

 

It’s a hard knock life

But I learned

A few things along the way

 

Learn what’s important

It’s a hard--knock life
