The Preparation

Who will you prepare to be?
At the end of your time with us what will you do?
I will cry & weep & whisper good-bye
Will you hold me & promise to never let go?
Are you afraid of what I may say to you
How long will it take to make you see who I am?
I am the girl who can laugh even when I cry
This is who I've prepared to be.
College & work, schooling & chores,
These are what we believe builds our character.
But are they really all that they're cracked up to be?
No matter how hard you work, you may still be a grouch.
Life isn't about what you have achieved
It's about who you've made a difference to.
As we sit here thinking of all the things we still haven't done
The time keeps on ticking faster & soon your time will be gone.
Get off your butt, get in the sun
Our lives are worth living to the absolute fullest
Who cares if you don't have tons of money?
Who cares when one day we'll be with God?
Cash doesn't matter, pain doesn't matter
All that matters is that we keep on going
Showing the ones we love they've got someone to lean on.
Who will you be when your time with us is over
What will we think as we lay down to rest
How much will I cry when I've said my last good-bye?
It's up to you, you're the only one who gets to choose.
Because we're all in your hands our hearts wide open to you
Who will ou prepare to be?
I prepared to be me so long ago
You have no time to do what you need to
In order to show the world you have control
So just get up & go.
