Fighting the Rapids

Where a year seems like an eternity to you getting through to tomorrow is progress Never have such words rang so true You were a paddle less canoe Caught in the rapids under stress Where a year seems like an eternity to you Day after day you have to come through Fighting the white water with finesse Getting through to tomorrow is progress Rapids after rapids come into view A mind in turmoil the waves caress Where a year seems like an eternity to you That inner strength you must renew the doubting mind may cause distress Getting through to tomorrow is progress Subdue your fears your dreams pursue Reassess your future those dreams you repossess Where a year seems like an eternity to you Getting through to tomorrow is progress
