It's All on You
A wise man found me down on my luck
He had some words to share
His clothes were ragged, face covered in scruff
But in his eyes I saw a glare
I knew something was there
He looked into my eyes with a wrought gaze
A dozen moments passed
His pupils widened as he studied my face
Looking right into my pain
That's when he said to me
He said
Life is an endless source of pain
But there's no one to blame
It's all on you, what you do
Accountability
Ain't no one to blame
Thought to myself how could he be so cruel
He doesn't know what I've been through
Wanted to say it must be easy for you
Then I saw he had one leg for my two
He had one leg and I've got two
Life is an endless source of pain
But there's no one to blame
It's all on you and what you do
Accountability
He told me life is short
He said there's little time
Stop pointing fingers at them
Point your finger inside
Life is an endless source of pain
But there's no one to blame
It's all on you, what you do
Accountability
Ain't no one to blame
In a world where blame is placed everywhere
Be the one who accepts the fault
Differentiate you from the featherweights
Create a league of your own
In a world where blame is placed everywhere
Be the one who accepts the fault
Differentiate you from the featherweights
Create a league of your own
Winning the battle starts from within
But you have to hold yourself
To the standards of Marcus Aurelius
And the stoics who wrote the book
With that, he took my hand
Looked me in the eye and said again
You've got one chance to be a man
Your shot at life won't happen again
Your shot at life won't happen again
Life is an endless source of pain
But there's no one to blame
It's all on you and what you do
Accountability
It's all on you!
