\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0No Way But Up<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I know that look on your face.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have failed in every case.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

All you’ve tried falls apart.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Even love led to a broken heart.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

No happy sunsets for you.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just one more night to go through.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I would say you’re down and out.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

All you do is sit and pout.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

No clouds with a silver lining.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing nice to \u00a0be reminding.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Life has been a one way street.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing special or unique.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have thought of ending it all.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

That step might be your biggest fall.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

No where now to go, but up.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is hard. Like driving a truck.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Get down and knuckle under.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The sound of that is like thunder.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Roaring in your head so loud.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You can’t lose yourself in a crowd.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

John Cena says never give up.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It takes a lot more than luck.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It takes hard work. Never give in.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

In the end, you will win.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Put a smile on that face.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You can never be a disgrace.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You have brains, health, and good looks.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just like written in a book.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Look ahead to the final chapter.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The ending is great. No crap here.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is the book of your life.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You can write the ending without strife.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Go for the gold. Do your best.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Put those negative thoughts to rest.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Remember, no matter what you do.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The final results are up to you.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
