Forecast of Life

If your glass is half empty,

You’re drinkin’ too fast.

If your glass is half full,

There’s no thirst that will last.

Because it is what it is,

And that’s more of the same.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.

You can choose to be happy,

Though it might be real hard.

Or you can cry, bitch, and moan,

About your shitty hand of cards.

But once they are dealt,

Your stuck here in the game.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.

You can beat yourself up,

Over things you have done.

Or you can stand up to the man,

In your head with the gun.

Who’s held your mind hostage,

With the barrel to your brain.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.

There are things we can control,

And things that we cannot.

There are days that we’re freezing cold,

And we can’t seem to get hot.

There’s times when it’s our fault,

And there’s no one left to blame.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.

To appreciate your falls,

You must learn from the pain.

Or lose all you got,

To recognize what you’ve gained.

Sometimes to chop wood,

You gotta go against the grain.

And you can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.

If you don’t want to grow,

Just run from your battles.

The easiest route,

Is the road often traveled.

A worn down path,

That’ll drive a man insane.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain

There are things we can control,

And things that we cannot.

There are days that we’re freezing cold,

And we can’t seem to get hot.

There’s times when it’s our fault,

And there’s no one left to blame.

You can’t change the weather,

But you can dance in the rain.
