[Intro] It is what it is... But what if it isn’t? [Verse 1] What goes around comes around You reap what you sow Easy come, easy go But time sure moves slow Don’t cry over spilled milk Let sleeping dogs lie The grass is always greener But nothing ventured, nothing tried [Pre-Chorus] Every cloud’s got a silver lining But don’t count your stars while they’re still shining [Chorus] Say what you mean, mean what you say Life’s a journey, not just a day You can’t have your cake and eat it too But when life gives you lemons — make something new [Verse 2] Actions speak louder than words A bird in the hand is still just a bird Rome wasn’t built in a day But you miss every shot you don’t take No pain, no gain Don’t feed the flame Keep your chin up And dance in the rain [Pre-Chorus] When the going gets tough The tough start climbing up [Chorus] Say what you mean, mean what you say Life’s a journey, not just a day You can’t have your cake and eat it too But when life gives you lemons — make something new [Bridge] All’s fair in love and war Closed doors just lead to more Don’t judge a book by its cover You’re the author now — discover [Final Chorus] Say what you mean, mean what you say Don’t throw this one wild life away It is what it is — but it’s more if you try So speak your truth, then learn to fly [Outro] Sticks and stones may break your bones But words can build a legacy So walk the walk, and leave this world A little more brave — a little more free
