No Regrets

🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏πŸ”₯🍏

Our Only Regrets Are Things We Never Tried

Don't Put Off Something That You Can Do Today

Were We Scared Of Failure? Were We Stopped By Pride?

🍏πŸ”₯🍏

Are We Scared Others Our Efforts Will Deride?

If We Don't Go Forward, We'll Have No Hooray

Our Only Regrets Are Things We Never Tried

🍏πŸ”₯🍏

With Each Word I Write Here I Have Never Lied

But I Regret In Believing There Was Fair Play

Were We Scared Of Failure? Were We Stopped By Pride?

🍏πŸ”₯🍏

On Here Every Day, My Great Work I Have Plied

Always Try New Things. Do They Work? Who Can Say?

Our Only Regrets Are Things We Never Tried

🍏πŸ”₯🍏

I Would Regret It If I Let My Work Slide

I Will Always Use Colours Rather Than Grey

Were We Scared Of Failure? Were We Stopped By Pride?

🍏πŸ”₯🍏

Should I Regret This? Only I Can Decide

My Inspiration Always Showa Me The Way

Our Only Regrets Are Things We Never Tried

Were We Scared Of Failure? Were We Stopped By Pride?
