3 Pet Ps of Life
Knock, Knock
Who’s there?
It’s me, Your Past
I am not here to taunt
Nor here to daunt
You did what your heart felt was right
You tried what your mind had in sight
So brood over me not
Regret me of no sort
I will follow you each day
As a reminder, so you don’t stray
Knock, Knock
Who’s there?
It’s me, Your Present
I am not here to stay for long
Just bringing you today a new song
Opportunities I may bring
Grabbing them, has to be your thing
Explore and experience it all
Come dance into life’s big ball
So make the best of me now
For tomorrow I could be a different chow
Knock, Knock
Who’s there?
It’s me, Your “Phuture”
Yes, it is THE Future with a “P”
Obscure I continue to be
Waiting for you to shape me right
Make me proud, make me bright
I’m always in your hands you see
Up to you, on how you mold me
So come chase me till the end of time
Till I will be yours & your fame mine
