Life is a journey, a winding road,
Full of twists and turns, a heavy load.
We start with innocence, a childlike heart,
And as we grow, we're torn apart.
We learn to love, to laugh and cry,
To chase our dreams, to soar up high.
But life can be cruel, and hearts can break,
And sometimes we make mistakes.
We find our way, we stumble and fall,
We pick ourselves up, we stand up tall.
Through every trial, every test,
We learn to grow, to do our best.
Life is a gift, a precious thing,
A chance to dance, to spread your wings.
So take a breath, and seize the day,
And live your life in your own way.
