IT COMES AT A PRICE

Jan 16, 2026

IT COMES AT A PRICE

Up, up there, there I was,

Walking around with my chest up high.

One lightning strike hit,

The crash was like nothing I ever felt.

Ambition led to pain, But the lessons led to wisdom.

Mmh mnh mnh.

The rain poured and poured at my lowest low,

As I slowly picked up the pieces.

Reaching deep within my strength,

I remembered why I started.

So the journey continues,

Another day, another try.

Easy come, disappeared in a blink

The care of a mother’s love,

The naivety of a hopeless, happy child.

Oh, I remember the way, how good it was to be ignorant.

Heavy is the price of wisdom and ambition.

So tell me now, how will this end?

Does it end in joy or regret?

Either way, life goes on.
