Fast Awake

Thank God for 7-27, when my son flew in Life as it should be will forever begin Charming little visions of how days are meant To teach him as he shows me how life is spent Listen to me now and read what I find so true Words are like a beat that can start a groove Bring the rhythm back to lift your spirits up Don't worry too much because we all get stuck My life seems to stop before it begins Caught in another ever-recurring trend Giving away every one of my previous wins With Faith and company until my life ends It's time now to be down again Even faster than western winds Life can run around, leave you in loop Feeling that life needs one more scoop Tip the timer over, fall with the sand Live for every second you possibly can I will soon learn should luck turns up I'm lost, backwards, and running amuck Trying to regain what I thought I missed Elusive, erratic and ending up like this Never have I wanted to be other than here Life in crystal-clear brings visions near Capable are your dreams so easily achieved All you have to do is work & truly believe Look for a big picture in whatever you see Never believe free, it offers no guarantee Just sit back and listen to tales they tell And make your own path but remember it well Don't try to be so deep, just work to relax Make life a story but include all the facts Learn about yourself when you're at the mic Work the crowd just to see what you're like Life will soon be everything you need it to be Proceed with sight don't let only destiny lead You always have control in every step you take Follow dreams today and always live fast awake At times I don't know where this path would go Like I'm hosting a show I've never seen before Filling in the gaps, taking punches for others Learning along the way what life really offers It’s time now to be down again Steps closer to an unknown end Digging up dirt nearly burying yourself At least the digging is good for health Live your life now, stay until the very last Live your life today as if it's already past
