DEALING WITH ADDICTION |
In the course of our abusing,
We have let our health diminish.
We've started a new way of life,
Have doubts if we can finish.
Go get yourself a jump rope,
Or some healthy training tape.
If you have gotten out of it,
It's time to get in shape.
Exercise is nature's way
Of truly feeling high,
Without the constant cravings
That you daily must deny.
It takes a while, but have no doubt,
You spiritually will grow,
And you will feel a high like none
You've ever known before.
Start yourself out slowly,
Force yourself! Endure the pain!
You want to get the benefit;
If so, then feel the strain.
Each day you will feel better
As you build your body strong.
You'll prob'ly want to curse yourself,
For taking you this long.
It fills the time. You won't be bored.
It's time to get it started.
Don't do it with rebellion,
Or go into it half-hearted.
You messed you up and drug you down;
It's time to bring you back,
To build those sagging muscles,
To improve where you might lack.
A year from now you won't believe,
The change you have acquired.
Set your goals, then work them out.
Be, every day, inspired.
Prepare yourself to beat the odds.
To keep from getting bored.
By exercising daily,
You will earn your just reward.
