Seize the Day

They say that I should seize the day,
Make something of my life.
They say that I should carry on,
Break through this constant strife.
They say that I should be working hard
To get where I want to be.
But I find it hard to focus on work
When I just want my mind to be free.
So I will keep on trying hard
To seize each passing day.
Live my life right to the full
No matter what they say.
