When I wok up
Photo by B.R. Henry
When I woke up
I thought I had everything
The world was mine for the taking
When I woke up
I thought everything was great
My family was healthy and I was loved
When I woke up
I thought I would receive greatness
My dearest friends were with me
But
When I woke up
I had to make my own way in the world
When I woke up
I was blessed my family woke up also
When I woke up
My friends help make me who I am
When I woke up
I was thankful for everything in my life
