Be Real

Live here and now
Tomorrow may never come
Live here and now
Don’t look back, years flow by

We run and run
From yesterday to another tomorrow
Forgetting about today
We run and run
From tears and darkness of sorrow
To see the light in the end

Tell me the story of bright today
Give me hope to find the way
To see future without fear
Give me hope to live now and here

I paint with verses and lines
Through the pale days I live again and again
Like an endless tale time flies
Through deep hidden pain

I’ve seen betrayal and cruel smiles
I’ve heard accusations and lies
From those I thought to be friends
Though it came to a logical end

I’ve seen the beauty of spring
I’ve heard silent whisper of the wind
And felt sweet scent of hope
There could be another world

Those who fled and thought they were right
Left so far behind
I wish I could say I wish them all the best
But I couldn’t care less

Live free from sorrows and pain
Go for your dream, try again and again
Feel, live and follow your dreams
Be honest, be real
