The Land of If
Listen to poem:
In the land of "If" somewhere this side of forgotten dreams
the world is very foggy and nothing is as it seems
There are no deadlines or plans
things just happen as they may
There are no new commitments made
nothing beyond today
For the land of If is living in the moment
but without working for your dreams
Your dreams are somehow forgotten
among everyday ordinary things
And you have no firm goals
beyond the few basic cares
and you are in stasis
and the daily grind seems to wear
the land of if, is for you to fill with your dreams
you only need to remember them
and put plans down to earn
For anything you can think of is possible too,
though the dates and times and persons may change
as things go along they are skewed.
But the intent it to reach nirvana the things that will bring you to bliss
and to not live a life wondering what you did miss
Money, fame, power, unconditional love
are all available to anyone and are not a mystery above
We can get what we dream of if we only make a plan.
And work it every day, and on our principals make a stand
So make your land of "IF" a realization of your dreams
and life will never be the same again I promise you, its as easy as it seems
