Switch

Sometimes , someday. Somewhere. Somehow Can't reach a star Maybe you should find a taller ladder Spread them wings and fly Wings got clipped People bring you down. Time rust that armor. Wears your heart out before it's time. Smile. Only you can make yourself keep going when all signs lead to a dead end. Sometimes you have to back track to find the right road to travel How far this road will take you is totally up to you. You will only go as far as you allow yourself. Road blocks are plenty. But usually they have a way around that block You just have to be willing to see the detour. And follow the right signs to get back on the correct path to tomorrow. If not ,your stuck in the side of the road going nowhere fast Guess it's up to you How much can you face and still go on Once again that is up to you Are you weak or are you strong. Being afraid to take the next step into the unknown. Natural to be afraid if the unknown. But how you act to this is very important. By going on you train your mind to not give up. By giving up you stay in the same place forever. While you are facing your fears your mind grows. By not facing them you are and forever will be, stuck in the same spot facing the same fears over and over until you step into tomorrow with open eyes and open heart Once again. All up to you Grow or stay in the same spot. No one can do this but you Tomorrow or yesterday. The future or stay in the past.you already know what happened yesterday. Look in the windshield or only look in the mirror of yesterday. Overcome or submit to your fears. Only thing I know to say. Wrong or right You'll never find the light if your afraid to turn the switch on
