Time Change ?
I've heard people say time an time again .
That they wished they could go back 5,10 or 20 years and change things to suit them .
and I'll admit to it a couple times Myself .
Erase all the bad shit that's came My way .
to live happily ever after in some Disney world fantasy .
Yes I've lived a hard life,
but I have to say I brought a lot of it on Myself .
I stood up many times when I should of shut up !
I'm a sucker for fighting for lost causes and I will probably die that way..
if I was to wake up one morning and didn't hurt in many different places.
I'd think I woke up dead .....
I made a lot of enemies along the way
But I made some Damn Fine Friends to
I've had more than my share of bad luck with women
mostly because they weren't Her !
But then again I think of what I'd have to give up to do it .
The thing is ......
In order to change all that
I'd have to give up watching My Son being born ...
I wouldn't of been around to help raise the rest of the kids I call mine
and they're the ones who taught Me
I didn't need to be a hard ass
( all the time )
I love them all ,
No one more than the other
But each in their own special way
Am I going to give that up to lose a few scars ?
Not on your life..........
I'll just continue to be a hard nosed redneck Who's Survived and live with it !
