Chew your food!........JAak

tell me if it hurts,tell me if you can fly,
sure it's a joke- but a good laugh is better then a cry,
simple is my life-simple is the rain,
but the true test of self is how you do through pain,
finish your food-doesn't matter if your hungry,
this is the path you wanted-now you have to chew,
chew til you make it through,
or you can go a different way,
i don't care if you wanna go--please won't you stay,
life is all over me-life is all around,
if you run away-it's still in front of you,
your the one who asked me what you should do-
finish your food-clear your plate--better make up your mind soon-
the hours getting late,
i was once like you-lost and confused..didn't have a clue what i should do,
so i just let it go by-now am sitting here poor,but do you know why?
cause i didn't chew, chew all my food..i got up from the table way too soon,
now am here talking to you..telling you what you need to do-
face your troubles-make them right-
other wise you might be like me too,
sitting here telling some other youth what to do-
so finish everything-right here and now-
cause if you do..chew all your food-then you don't have to teach others what to do-something you didn't do when you had the chance,
so take my advice-do it right-
it'll hurt at times-but you'll be able to fly away from here like some big old black bird,
but one more thing before you go-if you make it rich-don't forget you know who.
