Hustle hard for today, not tomorrow
Ignore your sorrow and your pain
Your limbs are strong not lame
And you got a smartass brain!
Let me explain
What you’re capable of
Follow your own pace, no need to shove or kick
But don’t delay, the wick is burning out
No need to whisper your truth, just shout
But no pouting or complaining
Just be weighing
Yourself on your own scale
You’re a great blue whale; judge you by yourself
Not your wealth
Not your stuff
Not your bank account
Not your iPhone
Not your car
Not your followers
Not your likes
Not your house
Not your watch
Not your spouse
Not your children
You are you
So hustle hard today, make something beautiful and new
BE STRONG,
ERIC
