“Hourglass”

There is sand, in an hourglass,
that cannot be flipped over.
We don’t decide how much sand there is,
Or find luck with a four leaf clover.

Theres no guarantee, or brokered deal,
So we can have it our way.
Some grow old, and others don’t,
There’s no crystal ball for each day.

pre chorus
So don’t waste your time or waste your breath,
Don’t take this life for granted,
Be the best you, and do all you can,
To bloom and grow where you are planted!

chorus
Time comes and goes,
Days start and end,
Years fly by faster than before.
But don’t kid yourself,
About wasting time,
Because you cannot make more.

You may have an axe to grind,
And want revenge,
Convinced it is worth the time.
But throwing shade will backfire,
And not help your light to shine!

So don’t waste your time or waste your breath,
Don’t take this life for granted,
Be the best you, and do all you can,
To bloom and grow where you are planted!

chorus
Time comes and goes,
Days start and end,
Years fly by faster than before.
But don’t kid yourself,
About wasting time,
Because you cannot make more.

Don’t kid yourself,
About wasting time,
Because you cannot make more.
