THIS LIFE`S CONQUEST
 


Matters not if you are grown or a child.
We expect one to another to be honest.
We don`t want any child to grow up wild.
Matters not if you are grown or a child.
It does matter about the label we twist.
People do label families, if you get the jest.
Matters not if you are grown or a child.
We can expect some to be uncouth and beguiled.
We must be faithfully honest, we must resist.
This is the way it is in this life`s conquest
