Free Flow

Write from the heart Write from the soul Find your life’s purpose That is your only goal Is it though? Is it really? Doesn’t that all sound a bit dreary Writing from your heart is a good place to start Writing from your soul is a good goal But finding the purpose That seems complicated Searching for meaning seems a little outdated We are expected to have our lives together we are expected to shine through all sorts of weather Why can’t we be spontaneous and go with the flow? Life has many changes, situations come and go They tell you to have it all figured out and know just what to do Life can leave you feeling like you’re an animal in a zoo Why do we let ourselves be put under so much pressure? Our minds are fragile little things We should handle them like treasure Free your mind and understand that it’s never too late to walk a new road Life shouldn’t be about sticking to one certain code So dance in the rain and let your mind feel free Run in the fields of flowers and climb the biggest tree Change the job you have if it’s not making you content Scream into the rainy days let your lungs vent Embrace the good days you have but also embrace the bad Life is a journey, not a race don’t spend it being sad Don’t let people put pressure on you to be conditioned and know how to act Stick to your guns, live your own life and have your own pact So write from the heart Write from the soul Everything else can wait remember if you need a change in life it is never to late
