Grin And Bear It 😁

entry picture

Just grin and bear it
Your day will come to shine
Heart and soul will be divine
Just grin and bear it

Just grin and bear it
You made your bed in it lie
It's a tough world don't ask me why
Who really gives a damn don't share
Nobody really gives a care
Just grin and bear it

I woke up this morning in a daze
Opened my eyes peered through the haze
Just me and my head spinning 
Wanting a brand new beginning
You made it this far still in one piece
When will the self doubt ever cease 

Just grin and bear it
Karma you will reap what you sow
You're a loser pal there you go
Stiff upper lip shed no tears
Just drowning in hopes and fears
Just grin and bear it

The day ahead it is so daunting 
The past consumes me haunting
One step at a time definitely de ja vous 
Yearning for happiness but feeling blue
I have a dream of utopia so pure
Nirvana is my destination sure

Just grin and bear it
A rollercoaster ride life can be
Riding the waves then all at sea
Turn the page make a plan decide
One door closes another one opens wide
Just grin and bear it

Just grin and bear it
Your day will come to shine
Heart and soul will be divine
Just grin and bear it

I think this is great Tom. I can really connect with the movement here as I read through your words. I don't know about you, but I feel it just goes on and on, doesn't it?
