Tough Enough

I stood out in the desert
The desert I call life
Waiting waiting
For someone
All I found was strife

Sitting on the hot hot sands
I like to call temptation
Waiting, waiting for someone
Who I’ll spend my life worth waiting

Sitting in the desert
Someone comes up to me
“Hey can you cross the desert
And make it to the sea”
Are you tough enough?
To make the Journey

“Of course I can make it
From here to the sea
But I’m waiting for someone
Who’ll make the journey with me?
You see I'm waiting waiting
Waiting for true love that can be
So I can’t leave here
Until true love I see

“Well” said the person
Who walked up to me
“How can you find love?
Life is a journey,
You must make the journey
With family friends and kin
But now its time to go alone
My dearest friend
For How can love find you?
If you also don’t look
For love isn’t found
In a story
Or a book
But in a journey
That You also took

So prove to me kid
That Tough Enough YOU ARE
And find your true love’s haven
And journey across this clod
Can you make the journey?
From the desert to the sea
Are you tough enough?
And be all that you can be”

“I will make the journey
I will cross the sea
I will prove my toughness
I’ll be all I can be
I will find my love
I will disprove my course
I will make that Journey
And I will not fall short
I am tough enough
To make the Journey
To the sea
I will prove my self
And be all I can be
Are you tough enough?
To make the journey
Will you listen to advice?
And be all that you can be
Are you tough enough?
To know right from wrong
And beat life’s tough course
And journey cross this clod
Will you find out?
What life truly means
Are you tough enough?
To leave the desert free
