&#039;The really important people in life have a way of coming back to you&#039;<br /> &#039;Good enough isn&#039;t good enough&#039;<br /> &#039;You don&#039;t have to be sick to get better&#039;<br /> &#039;Come what may and love it&#039;


I know life is getting crazy
At times it’s frustrating
You feel like giving up
It’s like everyone pushes you down
And kicking you around
You’ve had enough

You’ve grown anxious
And so sick of waiting
But remember before you act

Count to ten
It’s one step closer
Two the end
3, 4, 5
Patience takes out the knife
Six kind words to yourself
When you’re mad at someone else
Hold it in
Until you get to ten

Well it’s good to step back
Before you lash out bad-ly
Help to keep your calm
You just need some insight
Just ‘cause they’re not right
Doesn’t mean do something wrong

You’ve grown anxious
And so sick of waiting
But remember before you act

Count to ten
It’s one step closer
Two the end
3, 4, 5
Patience takes out the knife
Six kind words to yourself
When you’re mad at someone else
Hold it in
Until you get to ten

Getting angry
Someone save a me
Take a breath
Lay it down to rest

Count to ten
It’s one step closer
Two the end
3, 4, 5
Patience takes out the knife
Six kind words to yourself
When you’re mad at someone else
Hold it in
Until you get to ten
