Have Some Guts

If people aren't laughing at your goals, your goals are too small,
Coz each increment in the number of your critics, is an indication that you've heard your inner call.

Find a way out of your house, and you'll get what you need,
You got to do it right now buddy, don't just read!

Escape from the problems, you may do that for a while,
But someday you'll have to face them with a smile.

Coz if the enemy knows, you've come unprepared,
He'll crush you deep down in the Earth, you'll be scared.

A gun on your head with bullets loaded inside, shouldn't make you go nuts,
Coz you're grown up now, have some guts!

A simple sound of thunder, or a sudden flash of light,
Is something that adds thrill to the night.

Knowing every answer might not be the goal of life,
But the curiosity to know them all will make you feel alive.

So a gun on your head with bullets loaded inside, shouldn't make you go nuts,
Grow up man, face them all, have some guts!
