The Steele Deal

It was what it was and now it is what it is and all we can do is realize why we are as we are

The story of life

This is the story of life 

Of beginnings and the end 

And what happens to all of us 

before we become dust in the wind 

You see, Life is evolutionary 

Changing all of the time 

As is this tale of life 

Evolving line by line 

Just as from the single acorn

A mighty oak will grow so high 

Or from a pupae in a cocoon 

A beautiful butterfly will emerge and fly 

It seems that sometimes life has a plan 

Other times it appears that it does not 

In the end, when it’s over

you’ve got what you’ve got

No one ever promised you 

That life would always be fair

That people would be honest

Or ever really care

Just as from the single acorn

A mighty Oak will come to grow so high 

Or from a pupae in a cocoon 

A beautiful butterfly will soon emerge and fly 

We all need to remember

That no one gets out alive

And that if there is a Heaven

That’s where we hope to arrive

Please be kind to others

On each and every day

Follow the Golden Rule

For that is Heaven’s way

Just as from the single acorn

A mighty Oak will grow so high 

Or from a pupae in a cocoon 

A beautiful butterfly will emerge and fly

🎵 Now you can listen to the full song —

“The Story of Life” is more than just lyrics; it’s a reflection on the journey we all take, from childhood to our final days. I wrote it with the rhythm of a country ballad in mind, and now you can hear it the way I imagined it — set to music, carried by the gentle voice of time.

Give it a listen below, and let me know what you think.
