As the new year approaches,
We get excited making new year resolutions,
But after a period we then lose our execution,
Why is this? Are we in a devolution?
Time waits for no one as proven in this year's tragedies,
like a thief in the night it can strike when you're not ready,
So don't wait for another day and put it on the line,
Not doing anything productive is a crime,
For everyone is given the same amount of time.
A new year is indeed a new start,
But you're mistaken if it also means a new you,
Instead, be a better you,
Because you will always be better than yesterday's you,
You can if your heart and mind wants to,
We can't reload our save point to start anew,
A new you is a silly phrase and it's not the answer,
Since we are already here why not be better?
My friends, we all have gone through our ups and downs.
And it's in our human nature we tend to remember the bad more,
Which explains why we can't seem to get up from the ground,
My friends, we fall so we can learn to pick ourselves up from the floor.
Yes the world is cruel,
But that does not mean we should let it rule,
So don't let yourself down too much,
We are not alone in this, yes you and me,
2014 will soon be just another memory,
So be brave and bold,
Not cowardly and cold,
In a few more hours,
Tonight's the night the world begins again and better days will come.
And it starts with you, a better you.
Happy New Year :)
