Everything New

When it’s quiet and we sit alone
It gives us time to think
It will help us look within ourselves
Into our thoughts we’ll start to sink

And when our mind is focused
On what it is we want to do
We must find the courage to make it work
So we can see our dreams come true.

We can always be successful
So don’t be afraid to try
Or you might be the one who sits by himself
Asking who, what, where, and why?

Just keep on moving forward
And don’t get left behind
For your life can be whatever you choose
‘cause it starts with your body and mind

So if we are lucky we just might find
What is good and what is true
And that’s when you’ll get rid of all that is old
Leaving room for everything new.
