Building the Base

If not standing on solid ground Small setbacks can be sapping Exterior cracks can compound Stress that was already flapping Daily difficulties easily expand Into a full season of suffering Questions outnumber answers As stuck in a state of buffering But able to break free from the haze Finding an antidote from the craze Allowing us to escape the maze Igniting our ambition into a blaze Despite the swirling above the surface Can be rooted in a strong home base With the ability to ride out the storm No matter what situation we face Once we begin to turn the corner Setting our foundation firmly in place Can tackle any upcoming speed bump Handling them with newfound grace
