Now Or Later

Now or later 
Later or now 
Will have you wondering how 
How can we 
Not see what it means to be 
Means to be 
What does that mean 
Read between 
Your dreams 
Fulfill them 
Don't just dream 
Live In  them 
Plan them out 
Do the hardwork
It pays off 
There will be hard days 
This is not meant for the soft
Look at the cloth 
It's made different and unique 
The right stitches makes it complete 
Take a seat 
You've done your best 
This is what we call success 
At its best 
You ask how I do it or who I do it for
It's supernatural for sure 
I do it for me and The lord 
Trying to get on one accord 
He makes my worries 
Dissappear in a hurry 
He is my strength on my weakest days 
He lifts the load we carry
He comfort and protects 
When I think of him 
He never rejects 
He knows that I am a vessel and he is in control 
When I feel I'm falling into pieces He let's me know he's  in control 
Now I've come to the conclusion 
That I am this and that 
I am the award 
That's a fact 
I am so honored that you care 
I love you are always there 
And you spare me daily
I'm thankful I was worth saving 
Thank you for paving  
The way 
Thank you for keeping me safe 
Now is the time to be kind 
And grateful and humble 
Even if you stumble 
Don't crumble 
You got it
Together 
You are clever 
Your focus on now
Prepares you for later
Your later prepares you for greater.
