To be or not to be,
The change you want to see in the world.
Because I’m getting busy dying instead of living,
Chasing that better tomorrow - today.
Preoccupied with dreaming it,
While others tell me to JUST DO IT.
I aimed for the moon, missed, and came crashing back down to Earth.
Only for someone to tell me that my failure was not the end, but the beginning?
So let me get this straight.
If I fell down yesterday, I should get back up today?
But yesterday’s tomorrow was a dreamworld away.
And what if I do get back up today?
I’ll put one foot in front of the other and march my happy ass to a better tomorrow.
But knowing my clumsy self I’d trip on the way there.
And how about tomorrow’s tomorrow?
If every exit is an entrance somewhere else, I’d probably pick the fire exit and have to evacuate.
If another door opens every time one closes, that’s a security issue.
If quitters never win, I know a few ex-junkies who have something to say about that.
Not to mention the day after tomorrow’s tomorrow.
I tried to stop and look around to appreciate life,
Unfortunately it was moving so fast it just ran me over!
But I guess that’s the truth behind it all.
You just can’t reduce life in all its wonky, yet majestic glory to a few simple words.
All you can do is hope you’re doing it right.
