Life is not a goal, it's a journey
It don't stop, world's always turning
Always aiming to get better, get your shit together
And remember to never stop learning
-
Your path is not predetermined
And once you check out there's no returning
Scratch where it itches, don't dwell on the riches
And be careful 'bout the bridges that you're burning
-
Keep your ear to the ground for opportunity
Take advantage of the strength of the community
Learning lessons from the hurts, never giving up the search
Coz you know sometimes it works out beautifully
-
Always be prepared like a bomb kit
Whether it's a choice or a promise
and don't stress out so much, pham, you got this
-
No hidden plot, no conspiracy
Just the real world we see empirically
Temptations abound, easy answers all around
And the nonsense found in some therapies
-
It's hard not to be confrontational
When faced with claims so sensational
Keep your bias in check, coz the more you inspect
it's hard not to expect hoaxsters full of bull
-
Animate your mind like a Disney flick
Keep it weird like Mxyzptlk
We can help you brave the storms, don't worry 'bout the norms
And if you're tempted to conform, don't give into it
-
Don't get locked down, try to find your part
Always stay true to what's in your heart
And every now and then you need a restart
