Real life
back in the day when I was a kid
my mother scolded me for bad things I did
had to be in the house before the street lights
didnt have much money so food was very slight
now that Im grown I've learned many lessons
to keep my friends and family close and count my blessings
teach my kids the difference between wrong and right
and for them to say they loved us each and every night
because in the real world real life is not for play
because one day this life will be gone away
my mother scolded me for bad things I did
had to be in the house before the street lights
didnt have much money so food was very slight
now that Im grown I've learned many lessons
to keep my friends and family close and count my blessings
teach my kids the difference between wrong and right
and for them to say they loved us each and every night
because in the real world real life is not for play
because one day this life will be gone away
