Sometimes all we desire is a good start
To raise the standards of living on our part
I stretch with my squinting eyes; yawning widely with a sigh
Tossing and turning in bed – five minutes more I cry
The morning’s tedious without caffeine
Fishing in my cupboard to find a new dress – no more old jeans
Work is a burden and punctuality a bloody mosquito
These rules are not for us – break them, mould them with the power of veto
The boss yells at the front table where I feverishly snore
He senses the nasty alcohol on my breath– he can’t ignore
He can’t figure out who am I – Beyonce, Ke$ha or Lady Gaga
Tick Tock to if I were a boy to Born this way – it is MY remix saga
I lose the job, freak out wandering streets and my wallet’s empty
I am confident, positive and lovely – don’t need any pity
If life was all about abiding by rules and regulations
There would have been a large platform then and no more stations
Life is a scoop of an ice-cream and that last bit of the dark chocolate cake
Enjoy and breathe the way you want – celebrate every day before you fake
True, better to live a life that is authentic than fake. If we are faking it we are living someone another persons dream, which is bad.
Not just bad but you can’t even reach the conclusion for your own life. Thank you for you wise comment Alex 🙂
Bless you,

Thank you so much Alarna for enjoying it. Everyone have their own”REMIX SAGA” and their own rhythm to sway with life, I just tried to explain mine. In tagline, all this meant – Live your life and care a damn about the world.
