Originally this poem was made for my brother who was going through some things. It gave him hope and in some ways I hope this will hep you if you need it. -Amour
When things get rough
And everything seems tough
Keep your head up
Life is too short to be just reminiscing
Just listen
Don’t forget about the past entirely
Move forward with purpose
Although life might make you nervous
God puts us in these positions to better ourselves
Life can be nice, but sometimes it might make you upset
You’ll never be perfect
And that’s fine, accept it
To live, it’s worth it
I honestly feel like life is a mission
We live in all this tension
Where sluts are women
Drugs and war is an addiction
Where God is seen as nothing but a religion
Where parents and siblings collide
Where nations divide
You’re going to hit a few bumps in the road
Ignore the things you’ve been told
Chase pointless things like money and gold
But God Forgives
You’re never alone
Our mission is to be the best we can be
To be a better person than our former selves
To help others around us
Not to compete
It would be too late to realize when you’re 6 feet deep
The world glamorize things that will drag you to hell
Make you do actions that will bring you to jail
The devil wears a veil
Majority of the masses don’t know he is here
So don’t be ignorant and ignore what God gave you eyes to see
Get your life together
Be the best you can be
That way one day you’ll be free
So, when things get rough
And everything seems tough
Keep your head up
Loving & following God is enough
