Let me help you understand, listen to my words.

Wasted Time

Said it so many times,
Saw it happen right before my eyes,
Heard you boasting about about the grown up games your playing,
Now you want my help since all the fun and friends are waning.

Said it would come to this,
Heard you say over and over "I got this!"
Saw the pained look when life through you a twist.
Live and learn words being wasted in your midst.

Stop crying,
Stop pacing,
life is an ever-lasting journey,
quit racing.

You can't make decisions then disappear,
Live and learn to you is still very unclear.
Stop yelling, stop beefing you have consequences waiting,
Slow down --truly listen to the words so far wasted on your generation.

Can't change the law of logic,
Can't make a crooked way straight,
Change your way,
re-align your fate,
Not too late to recycle words you thought were a waste.
