Life is too Short... to be Wasted

Life is too short
To be wasted worrying about 
The what-ifs and what-nots
And what could-be
To live in regrets
The milk has already been spilt
They no use crying over it
You can’t pour it back 
The world has moved on
So should you

Life is too short
To be wasted being troubled 
By the opinions of others
Everyone has a right to their opinions 
Everyone has their own perspective 
They may never see things
The way you do
The way you think they should
But it’s by no mean means 
That you are right and they are wrong
And the other way around
It’s just you don’t let them
Weigh on your mind
You don’t let them get to you

Life is too short
To be wasted living a safe life
To living in what feel safe and secure
Nothing good can come from
Staying within the safety 
Of the walls that you build
It’s time you break down those walls
Step out of the boundaries 
Push your boundaries 
Let not your thoughts and fears limit you
To live the life the way you were meant to 

Life is too short
To be wasted being who you are not
To roam around wearing a mask
To be not true to yourself 
How long would you live
Living a life what others want you to live
To live a life of just a show
A jaga maga mala bhaga
To create an image that’s not true
To live a life that ain’t true
How long would you go on
Living a life that’s a lie
Wake up and be true to yourself

Life is too short 
To be wasted running from it
To working hard for money
To forgetting you have a life to live
To be scared of 
What the world may think of you
To live according to the opinions of others
It’s time you take control of your life
Live the life you were meant to live
Be the person you were meant to be
Embrace yourself for who you are 
Carry yourself with pride
Learn something new
Do something you never did 
Surprise yourself
Do something for yourself 
Don’t be a victim of your situation 
There’s no medal or badge of honour

Life is too short
To be wasted wearing a perpetual frown
To want something 
But be too lazy to work for it
To complain but do nothing 
To right the wrongs
If you want a change
Then be that change
If you want to change
Take courage and make the change
Nothing will come to you
Nothing will be given to you 
Placed on a silver platter
You need to go out there
Hustle and make it happen

Life is too short
To be wasted being all by yourself
Take a chance on love
Give yourself the chance to love
As much as you can 
To love and be loved
To feel the greatest emotion 
you’ll ever feel
To risk it all, to give love a chance
To put your heart on the line
What good is a protected heart
Hidden from the world 
Give in to your desires
Go out there and find the one
Who’s the reason for your smile
The sunshine on your darkest day
The one who makes heart skip a beat
In who’s embrace you feel safe
Who makes you  feel wanted
In whom you find your home

Life is too short
To be wasted being put in one place
To stay where you are 
And not see the world
Not wander down the road less traveled
To see the world
 the way it was meant to be

Cause I’m the end
Life is short
The world is large
Go out there and live
Go out there and make a memory
