From Now On
From now on
I must gain some focus
Find a way to be motivated,
Study and find the light and love
I wonder if I've been practising enough,
Nothing comes easy, that's a fact
Got to try and improve and up my act,
Fill in the gaps where I lack
And find the strength to come back,
I should not be waiting for things to happen
I got start to stir things up,
I've got to make things happen
If I want to get anywhere in life,
Come at it old
So I got to be bold
And try,
To fulfil my potential
I have wasted so much time,
I am an honest critic
And I am critiquing my life,
It's not good enough
To sit and watch life go by,
As if I am waiting in a queue
For my time to come,
For my fifteen moments of fame
It doesn't work like that,
I got set targets and take aim and achieve
And stop making excuses
It has nothing to do with age,
Yes I work hard every single day
But it's for other people
It's time to do something for me
And if I want to achieve this
I got to make my pen bleed,
I got face myself honestly
Accept the fact I've never done enough,
To push myself forward
I've lacked the self belief and that's tough,
I got start believing in me,
If I expect others to do the same
It's about time that I upped my game,
Stop looking for others to blame
Stop dreaming and wishing my life away,
From now on I got to go against the grain
And get on the fast train
And be who I want to be
And do what I want to achieve,
Don't look to others
This is all down to me.
