BE ACTIVE, BE POSITIVE
 

A state of mind,
is the game we play,
it is always what we do,
never what we say.

To sit all day and think,
is the root of pain,
it is the inactivity,
that brings it back again.

In order to overcome,
the negative and gloom,
begin being more active,
you'll see why quite soon.

Be active, be positive,
don't sit around and whine,
be busy and smiles will come,
life can be oh so fine!

For if you want,
what is beyond the wall,
you must go and get it,
it won't come when you call.

Sitting and dreading,
the things that you fear,
and all that will happen,
your end comes more near.

Be active, be positive,
your life is not on hold,
you must think for yourself,
on yourself you must be sold.

The action must be you,
no one can take your place,
the want must be yours,
reality is yours to face.

Sitting on our big behinds,
will accomplish nothing good,
it will keep us down and lost,
you'll never be what you could.

Force yourself to get up,
find a star for to aim,
create a purpose for being,
don't settle for just the same.

Be active, be positive,
it is the only life you'll get,
leave something of yourself on earth,
something they'll never forget!
