There are lots of men who go through life,
Fighting their battles, their struggles, their strife.
Some have dreams that are greater than their fears,
Others fight on when there is no hope.
Many men smile, their hearts are broken,
The hiding of words that may not be spoken.
They are like mountains in strength and courage,
Even when all things go wrong.
In fact, many men strive to make a better tomorrow,
Making their pain and their tears into sorrow.
They fall on the road but will not stay,
They stand up back up and continue to walk through suffering.
For many men, success and respect is what they're looking for,
They hope to gain their reward for their efforts.
Some go after money, and some go after fame,
However, a name is not enough to achieve true fulfillment.
There are lots of men who lead and there are lots of men who follow.
Some are afraid of today, others of the future.
But each man has a story that he has not told,
A trip of bravery, sweet and daring.
Therefore let many men take wisdom and grace:
And live life at its rapid speed with courage.
Let them be reborn as truth and compassion,
Let a light shine in their midst that will not be meaningless.
For life is a journey, with lessons to learn,
And each man's options decide his turn.
