5 If Only Live

*hahaha Thank you, I hope you are having a good time?* *This one is about hindsight, Yeah, what's that all about? Foresight would have been much better* *This is If only I knew* I remember when I was young and naive, Thought I knew it all, had nothing to grieve. Chasing fleeting dreams, ignoring the signs, Diving headfirst into those reckless times. If I’d just listened to the wiser voice inside, Kept my guard up, instead of letting pride Drive me through the storms, I could have stayed dry, Avoided the pain, the tears I cry. Those lessons I learned the hard way, Could have been easy, if I’d only stayed. It’s the small choices, the silent calls, That shape our fate, before we fall. If only I knew, I’d change my way, But now I see, it’s never too late to say— If only I knew, the easy way out, Could’ve saved myself from all this doubt. Lessons learned, too late to undo, But I’ll remember, if only I knew. The easy trials, just to steer clear, Would have kept the pain from drawing near. So next time I’ll choose what’s right, And hold on tight, through day and night. There was a time I trusted too much, Thought love was easy, just a gentle touch. Blinded by hope, ignored the warning signs, Fell for the wrong ones, crossed all the lines. If I’d only seen the truth behind the smile, Kept my heart guarded all the while, Would’ve spared myself the broken parts, And learned to listen to my heart. Those lessons I faced in tears and fears, Could have been avoided, if I’d only steered clear. It’s the small choices, the silent calls, That shape our fate, before we fall. If only I knew, I’d change my way, But now I see, it’s never too late to say— If only I knew, the easy way out, Could’ve saved myself from all this doubt. Lessons learned, too late to undo, But I’ll remember, if only I knew. The easy trials, just to steer clear, Would have kept the pain from drawing near. So next time I’ll choose what’s right, And hold on tight, through day and night. Then came the time I ignored my health, Thought I was invincible, full of wealth. Fast food, late nights, no time to rest, Burning out, I’d failed the test. If I’d only slowed down, taken a breath, Put my well-being before the stress, Would’ve kept my strength, avoided the fall, Learned to love myself, above it all. Those lessons I learned the hardest, true, Could have been simple, if I only knew. Every mistake, a lesson to grow, But they’re the easiest, if only I’d know. The small steps to keep me free, Would have saved me from misery. If only I knew, the easy way out, Could’ve saved myself from all this doubt. Lessons learned, too late to undo, But I’ll remember, if only I knew. The easy trials, just to steer clear, Would have kept the pain from drawing near. So next time I’ll choose what’s right, And hold on tight, through day and night. Now I see the patterns, clear as day, The choices I made, led me astray. But every stumble, every fall, Taught me lessons I can’t ignore at all. If I’d just paused, and thought it through, Avoided the traps, and trusted what’s true, Would’ve saved myself from tears and fears, And learned to listen to my years. Those lessons I’d rather not repeat, Could have been so simple, so discreet. It’s never too late to change the game, To break the cycle, and reclaim my name. The easiest path is often the best, If only I’d known it from the test. If only I knew, the easy way out, Could’ve saved myself from all this doubt. Lessons learned, too late to undo, But I’ll remember, if only I knew. The easy trials, just to steer clear, Would have kept the pain from drawing near. So next time I’ll choose what’s right, And hold on tight, through day and night. Now I see the truth, it’s plain and clear, The lessons that I’ve learned are near. Most of the pain was just a test, To guide me toward what’s best. The easy way is often the right, If only I’d seen it in the light. So I’ll walk with wisdom, step so slow, Knowing now which way to go. The past is lessons I can’t deny, But future’s mine, and I’ll fly high. Because I’ve learned, through every ache, Sometimes the easiest path is the one to take.
