A wise man's advice to cherish every day you live. Never waste an opportunity.

lyrics

One day they'll wake you up and say
"you gotta do something in the world today",
and you wont have a clue what to do!
Cause in your youth they've pushed you along your way
WAY (way, way, way, way, way),
and its come back to falter you!

But remember what he told you son
about the one who prospers on and on
and lives happy til his dying day!

So forget what they've instilled in you
about money, glory, and making a name
for yourself when too-

many people go through their petty lives
only worrying about these atrocious lies
in lieu of what they're called to ensue!
(Don't let this happen to you!)

I've seen too many times
people waste away their days of prime
and wonder where the times gone to.
(Don't let this happen to you)
And I've heard so many lies spattered by the ones i thought were wise
so let this be a wake up call to you

Do what you wanna do! Not what the others tell you to! Do what you wanna do! Before your time is due!

So forget what they've instilled in you and remember to stay true to the things that drive you to succeed! (And don't let them impede!) On your one life to live, ya, don't waste it, that leads to a bitter end and you'll be out of luck my friend! (Out of luck my friend!)
