Walking

You have to walk away before you can walk in Something must die for a new to begin So lace up the Rockport and sing, "Good Day" Then lithely walk with no delay Shaking the old, dusty, haggard load Now ease on down, ease on down the road Know that walking away is not a sign of cowardice Instead, it speaks to strength so walk in your purpose Move boldly and aimfully ahead Only sit at the table where LOVE is fed This old cycle of life gon' keep on a turnin' So make sure that the fire in your soul keeps a burnin' Walking, walking upright in the sunshine of life Away, far away from the dark clouds of strife Feeling the blessed rays from the sun Giving sweet praise to the Almighty One Just keep that rhythmic heel-to-toe flow No looking back, straight ahead to your new chateau
