Our Time!

I see too much sadness round these streets,
Just be a child, Let your dreams run wild,
We’ll rid the world of all its cheats,
And you can sing just when you want to,
And laugh as loud as you may be,
Turn thy friend into a brother,
Coz this is our time…. Our time to be free!

And the whole world is against you,
And you can’t put a foot right,
And you’ll apologise and sympathise,
Without a doubt of being polite,
But they’ll still find faults within you,
And frown on every little sin,
You could be a million people,
But you were never born to win,

Chorus (4 lines below)
Hold your head up high; put your hands into the air,
We’ve got families and lovers, there’s no need to give a care,
We may not reach our dreams and hopes, but what we’ve got we’ll share,
When it’s said and done I’ll go my way and I hope I see you there!

And fate may choose its angels,
And those who get their chance,
And the ones who excel from the start,
And those who just make the last dance,
And as the bar closes, so does your mind,
All your hopes and dreams seem to get left behind,
And all good deeds fade to a mess,
We’re the good guys who just can’t impress
We’ll always come second, get thumbs but with no rewards,
Its not our fault I recon, we were sent down the wrong roads,
The smile of gratitude that we always get with no hand shake
As the giver of chances walks straight past and we seem to miss our break,

Chorus

And I think time’s the greatest stealer,
And money equals time,
And true love’s the greatest healer,
And sadness isn’t work a dime,
So take a penny for your thoughts,
And stop asking deeds just for a price,
Coz although we’ll never make it,
We’ll still call this our paradise!

Chorus

You have copyrighted your work, I see. Very professional. As for your song, it is very uplifting and sweet. You must have been in high spirits when you wrote this. What do you think of it as the author?

I don't mind it too much. I seem to just pick a theme and write about it, whether it be love, friendship, family, life or something completely random or sometimes more than one combined. This didnt take very long at all to write. may have been a bit rushed. probably no more than 15 minutes but I just created these pretend visions and made up memories in my head and jus jotted them down really. Thanks for the comment too. much appreciated. =)

Well, for a quick work, you did extremely well, I would say! Imagine what it would be like if you took time with it, yes? Great job. Keep posting as you have been!
