Serious

Why so serious?

They ask, day after day. You try to take a break. Live life, have fun, just for a little while. "You're failing! Get back to work!" They say to you.

Why so serious?

Why? Because we are forced to be. Seriously, being serious earns you respect. CEOs are among the most respected among our society. How do you think they got where they are? Being serious, but taking breaks. But if you take breaks now, you won't make it up there. Climb the ladder, but if you stop, you slip, you fall, you fail.

Why so serious?

Because I can't afford not to be. It's better to be icy, to achieve your goals, to live comfortably, because you are serious, than to laugh at the world, and lose it all.

Why so serious?

Aren't you serious, though? You, reading this, are you always living on a rainbow? I guarantee you haven't lived the most carefree life in the world.

Why so serious?

Why so carefree? The path to success is concentration and determination. You need to take responsibility, and in that package comes seriousness.
