Steps

When you take the first step of the day today
You must remember to look both ways always.
One step to the right takes you somewhere to play.
One step to the left and you're lost in a maze
Of work to be done and needs to be met, yet
You will take the right step. You know that you will.
Tomorrow another chance you will have. Bet
You, you'll make the right choice. You know that you will.
