A circle, a cycle, the journey of life<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Call it what you wish<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A day will come<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When to dust you return<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019ll guarantee you this<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The flowers on your casket<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The people that you\u2019ve gained<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Will not be a measure of what you\u2019ve done<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But how you\u2019ve been humane<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The differences in opinion<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The grudges silently held<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The need to be superior<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The compliments withheld<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The indifferences and intolerance<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or religion and belief<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ego and the envy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stealing life\u2019s joy like a thief<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ragged, pain, worn away<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the weight of carrying these<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Never a moment of happiness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of joy, of gratitude, of peace<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Turn the pain into purpose<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fill the cracks of hate with love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When empathy replaces ego<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019d be amazed at what it does<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A circle, a cycle, the journey of life<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Call it what you wish my friends<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But when vices replace humane<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s really where life ends<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
