You Have Your Life To Live Poem by Ernest Makuakua

You only have your life to live.
You only have 1 life, your life to live.

You have One life to live.
One dream to achieve,
One goal to overcome,
One second to your thoughts,
One moment to make a choice,

You see
You only have one, one, one chance so many missions
One moment.

Love yourself
Trust yourself
Believe in yourself
You can have a friend but thinks for himself.
And you only have yourself to blame

Yourself to satisfy
Yourself to live for
Yourself for your self

To discover for your self
To succeed for yourself
Succeed for yourself

You have only your life, your life to live
You have your life to live
To Respect while you still can
To accept while you still can
To reject while you still can

Your parent is what you have
Your parents is all you have to build you and break you
Your friends to know where you will land yourself into
And what type of future you will have to posture
Your future to pursue

Don't kill yourself for herself, for himself
They'll cry, but it will be the end of you
You'll be rotten, Forgotten, even bitten, and be gone,
You'll be the done.

Don't weigh yourself with people who are not in your standard
But communicate with everyone, Don't discriminate to Dominate
Never imitate. Don't… dictate
You only have your life to indicate

Pressure might be a lot, Disclosure might be a lot
A feature might be all you've got, but remember you are a man of your own member
The author of your own life story. Your book the artist of your future
The one to blame when you fall so hard
The one to build you when you come to your senses

Pain cannot destroy you, Pain is there only build you
Find your zero hour
You only have your life to live

After darkness there's always light
We all learn through pain
You only have your life to live
Trust in God for he is the light that will lead you to this one life that you've got to live
