Procrastinating

Procrastinating 

(Verse 1)
What do you want to do
Are you waiting for someone to tell you
That you could do it
If that's what you waiting for 
Then screw it 
Look at the clock 
It just doesn't tick
It also tocks
This procrastination has got to stop 
Got to unlock your vision 
Be prepared to make decisions 
What to do 
What can be done
Sitting around 
Will get you no where hun
Get up and make it happen 
Instead of  all the yapping 

(Chorus)
We are all here 
on borrowed time
Sitting round 
like everything's fine 
Trying to please a whole world 
This ain't fair (nooooo)
Do I need to break it down 
Should I go there (ooooooohhhh)
That could open up a different conversation 
When your final result 
Has always been  procrastination

(Verse 2)

Ever wanted something so bad
That you gave it all you had 
People told you
You'd never do it
You crossed that out 
And stuck to it 
You stayed up til dawn 
You didn't let out a yawn
You finally realized this time 
That nothing would stop you 
From this grind 
That dream  that was deferred
Has awakened 
When you stop procrastinating (whoooaaa)


Chorus)
We are all here 
on borrowed time
Sitting round 
like everything's fine 
Trying to please a whole world 
This ain't fair (nooooo)
Do I need to break it down 
Should I go there (ooooooohhhh)
That could open up a different conversation 
When your final result 
Has always been  procrastination

(Verse 2)

Ever wanted something so bad
That you gave it all you had 
People told you
You'd never do it
You crossed that out 
And stuck to it 
You stayed up til dawn 
You didn't let out a yawn
You finally realized this time 
That nothing would stop you 
From this grind 
That dream  that was deferred
Has awakened 
When you stop procrastinating (whoooaaa)

Chorus)
We are all here 
on borrowed time
Sitting round 
like everything's fine 
Trying to please a whole world 
This ain't fair (nooooo)
Do I need to break it down 
Should I go there (ooooooohhhh)
That could open up a different conversation 
When your final result 
Has always been  procrastination


(Hook)
You will succeed 
Only if you believe 
Don't be so quick 
To think this it
It can get better 
Only if you are a go getter 
Strive to make a way
It will be ok
God will see you to it and also see you through it
Turn your dreams into a reality
If you want it that badly
You will win 
No longer lose
It's up to you 
Go ahead and choose
Time to figure out your passion
Don't let this world be a distraction 
This song is so relating
Everyone please stop procrastinating (yeaaahhhh)

Chorus)
We are all here 
on borrowed time
Sitting round 
like everything's fine 
Trying to please a whole world 
This ain't fair (nooooo)
Do I need to break it down 
Should I go there (ooooooohhhh)
That could open up a different conversation 
When your final result 
Has always been  procrastination

Repeat until chorus fades
