Safety Belt

Mayday, mayday 
My mind can't believe this was happening
I have no words to say 
I heard something tail spinning and crashing
It was my debauched life
The sand in the hour glass was going way too fast
They both begin with s…stress and strife
I wish I could change the past
Trying to get off this freight train
Friends and enemies are lost in the speed
Slowing down, the only feat to be abstained
In this fast lane, on our cell phones that’s why no one pays heed
I have to slow down its going to take more than a second
And I hope that I make it because I don't care for competition 
Sorry to say but there's no stop button
You'll never lose your way if you follow your intuition 
If only I could just rewind
Forming an unbreakable cycle 
Now I’m taking it one day at a time
So for this alluring ride, I need to buckle
