My only expectation
For you without reservation
Is to simply live well
To try to strive for happiness is hell
To gain riches and acclaim
Makes you a mere pawn in a game
To chase perfection is impossible
A race that never ends - it's always optional
Hop on and off of that rollercoaster as necessary
School, work, church, marry
But don't let others dictate how you should live
Laugh, cry, love, take, and give
