It Is What It Is
I have learned over time, that life don't rewind.
So, if you see a sign follow it don't let it fall behind.
It will become obsolete, and you'll experience defeat.
Life is all about taking a chance
and discovering your own balance.
Is it worth the risk?
Will it bother you if this opportunity is missed?
Does it seem too good to be true if you chose to
follow it through?
Are you scared, are you unprepared,
to discover what this world has layered?
Take it from me, in all realty,
if it's something one can't see,
and seems like a big mystery, leave it and let it be.
Now if you could picture it happening
and it seems to be the only thing, that could possibly bring, your life to a turning point.
