The Beauty of Life

It puts a smile on my face to see a smile of another

Whether it's the birth of a child or a chance to see your brother after he's been locked away for being a cocaine smuggler smuggling crack rock to his mother, oh brother

It puts a smile on my face again and again to see you always win

It puts a smile on my face to at least see you grin

It puts a smile on my face to see how hard your life is for you to smile but you smile anyway

Especially since the other day you were contemplating suicide and getting away from the mayhem

You build a wall over your emotions hoping you never have to show them

But I come through with the iron fists of Jericho pummeling through every brick made to stand between you and I

Because you put the biggest smile on my face whenever I see you cry

I can wipe away your tears and tell you everything's gonna be better

So hold it together

You shine brighter than any diamond whenever it glistens

And even if you aren't a Christian I can preach to you that blessings come in an instant

See no matter what you go through, you'll always find a reason to smile

No matter the issue, or how long you've been it

If I can find motivation just by listening to Chance Bennett, then I'm sure you can find motivation in life from the people that's in it

You started the race, I hope you finish

I hear you've became distant from us, I hope you didn't

You're worth more than what you're putting yourself through, all those negative emotions that you've hidden

You're a part of a prophecy in this cole world

Doesn't matter if you're man, woman, boy, or girl

Everybody has a life that's worth living for, so don't settle thinking that you're a False Prophet

Don't judge yourself for the amount of money that's in your pocket

Don't be scared to be the person you've always wanted

Don't be afraid to smile in the darkest of times cause there's always a light shown in the darkest of places

In this world you're gonna see a bunch of faces

Could be a child with a deformity or a crooked smile that requires braces

Seeing them push through gives me motivation enough to make it

Because their smile is what saves me from dangerous places

No matter how many times you get knocked down, you gotta stand tall

You gotta keep getting back up no matter how many times you fall

Cause again, blessings come in an instant even when you feel like you can't finish

That's just the magic of life, the beauty of it all
