My Richter scale Is passed a million I’m clocking in At about a billion smacked by the nail But the hammer is not the one smacking Life is not a box of chocolates And sometimes shit happens

Go to the therapist Tell them everything They give you some medicine But it don’t do a thing And you just wanna run away Send this whole life packing Life is not a box of chocolates And sometimes shit happens

Sometimes its hard to Get in your right mind When the same shit
happens time after time

I wanna be bird In no harms way
So I can fly Far from yesterday You best believe I won’t be looking back Cause there was never a prize In this Cracker Jack Life is not a box of chocolates But I coulda told you that Sometimes shit happens And that’s a fact Written by: L, S, D, R & T Park Slope Women's Shelter
