Right in the Middle

To some life is like chasing rainbows, seeking its pot of gold,
Then before they ever know it, life has turned them old,
Maybe it's a rabbit's foot or four leaf clover, they hope will bring them luck,
Always looking for an easier way, to make the almighty buck,
Now I have worked hard all my life, trying to make both ends meet,
But burning the candle at both ends, only leads to one's defeat,
For the grass really is not any greener, on the other side of the fence,
I guess at times I have thought that, but I'm not known for having much sense,
So now I'm trying to make life slow down, but that is hard to do,
It's like driving the speed limit on the interstate, they'll run all over you,
Yet I have found it is better, to stop a minute and pray,
And live life right in the middle of God's will, every single day.
