It's Time


 

 

                   And it’s time for a change, for me to start anew

 

Time to stop living without really thinking about what

 

The future will bring and just doing,

 

Just getting out there and doing what I need to do

 

Day dreaming and night time worrying will not

 

Get someone anywhere; you have to do your best

 

I thank you God for your help, not visible

 

To the naked eye, but I must do my part

 

As well, I cannot sit around and hope forever

 

I cannot just wade in the water

 

I have to take the plunge

 

I have to take my shot and be brave

 

With any challenge that I cross across

 

Those days of childhood play are over

 

It’s time to grow up…
