If We Knew

If only we knew when and where to be at the right time
when to speak when to hold our peace

Words left unspoken can sometimes leave lives unbroken
but the truth hurts we all know,I just wish I didn't always know

Holding my silence is almost like lying
should I,why wouldn't I

I understand in life we can't always choose the hands that are dealt
but its all in how you play the cards........right?

Responsibility,we want the rewards of it but not the chores
Look at death he may not love his job but someones got to do it
how else could we get to the promised land.

But still I bear my burden of speaking the truth
because nothing hurts more than being deceived by the ones you trust

I may not know when the time is right,
or the right words to speak,but I do know the right path to walk
