Tough Blood

I learned to make my self smile the wrong ways
still have that twisted sense of humor
cause I know what its like to cut corners
don't have to
but hate to pass up any opportunity
especially when its the easier way out

These are what will be my fault
a fleeting glimpse of all the things that should have could have would have DIDN'T.

I don't mean to be complaining
this is not that at all

Life is a tall order for any of us to keep
some stay untouched
some never get a chance
few have the idea
even more have no idea

I know my blessings they are not from what you think
They are from Family, Friends, hard work a bit of tough luck and and a hell of a lot of good luck.
So I count them on the  daily
One thing that I wont take forgranted.

is death.
