A Waste Of Time

Maybe I am crazy for actually believing that this could work,

And even though they don\'t admit it, I see the truth hiding behind their devious smirks.

They are stifling their laughs and hiding behind lying eyes,

Telling me to pick the safe route, stick to my comfort zone and be wise.

Just because it worked for them doesn\'t mean it will work for me,

Because maybe I am capable of becoming everything I have dreamed to be.

Without taking that risk, there is no reward,

And I finally have the belief in myself to do it alone, even if there is no one else on board.

I can\'t sit around for the rest of my life and wonder what could have been if I just gave it a shot,

Knowing that I could make that dream come true if I actually gave it everything I got. 

Maybe this dream was instilled in me for a reason,

And despite what everyone is saying, it\'s not just a season.

It\'s not something I want to try for fun,

It is something that I am going to keep doing until I\'ve won.

This gift was given to me for a reason, and it something I want to pursue,

And I am not going to stop until all of it has come true.

Maybe it won\'t work, and maybe I will fail,

But maybe all my dreams will come true, and I will actually prevail.

And show others along the way what can happen if you work hard,

And take the risk, allowing yourself to play those uncertain cards.

You never know what can happen, maybe it can all become real,

And maybe that is exactly what you need in order to heel.

You letting go of everything that is holding you back,

And finally letting go of everything that is telling you that you lack,

The skills and the power to change the path that you are currently on,

Until the fears and doubts that you had are finally gone.
