Just Be

To an extent I know who I am
But, who is it that I wish to be?
What is it in life I have to do
before the answer is given to me?

I sit back and listen as people talk on
with their plans for the future thought out
I want to do something but, what i'm not sure
I just want to be on the right route

I feel so pressured, like my time's running out
rushing to find where my future will lead
When really the truth is:  I've found my direction
In time is where i will go to suceed.
