A Lesson Lived Is a Lesson Learned

Do it
Some scars are meant to be worn with pride
Everyday is knowledge to use in life
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Setbacks used to propel me forward
Misjudgment taken as force to do right
A better outlook a mindset of power
Each day resolve and reform
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
You've got to fend for yourself
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Everyday is a lesson
Said so many things that I wish I could retract
I've got my issues, I've got my demons
Finished what I began and finally saw
It's how you use the knowledge you've been given
Stood tall when others would have turned and run
Put my work in when everyone quit
Claw and tear for everything I have
And I've only just began
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
You've got to fend for yourself
A lesson lived is a lesson learned
Everyday is a lesson
