Drive The Hell Out Of This Life

Time has a way that breaks you down As we age we fall victim to its plague Can't out run it can't escape it It comes and comes Sneaks right up on you Before you know it your 49 stuck in 1994 It's a complicated journey Filled with curves and chaos It flashes by like a thunderstorm Loud and hard Right up to the now It's a whirlwind of change Captivated by simplicity It's the realization of the mistakes And the corrections that come to light It's a hard look at what you have become And how much time you have left to fulfill your legacy Makes you think what you have done And how you got here It's time knocking at the door Like am unwanted guest Wanting you to focus on what you will do next How you will approach these next few years It's the cause it's the meaning It's what makes you revailvent In this unforgiving world Just shine now light the day and let the shadows of yesterday fade Right now time has the wheel but you can still drive the hell out of this life
