About "done with keepin up"

well....this song was written after a long conversation with a friend of mine. We talked about making a difference in the lives of those around us. How is that done? Is it done by working like mad? never seeing the kids? What are we taking with us when we leave? Nothing.... So, I believe we need to invest in the lives of friends and family....this takes time.....let's be patient together and let's love deeply.
