I look into my face! What can I find in there?
Who has a real place in my heart?
What is my aim in life? Do I know who I am?
I have a life, a job, I have a family!
I have friends, have fun and have a place to be!
But still, there is a knock in my head:
There is someone out there
with a better job, a better life!
A greater house, a finer wife!
I need to carry more, life is short, I may not miss a thing!
My friend calm down!
We love you as you are
don’t just pretend to be you, be you!
Life offers many possibilities
If you miss one, take another!
My life is worth! I am caring of myself!
Life has power! Fuck material shit!
I will never forget that my friends are here!
