Set Back
I've always wondered why I have yet to go anywhere in life.
and why I feel myself in the same position time after time.
but I finally realized that I'm the only one holding myself back.
Whenever I feel like I'm not good enough I always step back.
When am I going to accept that
I'm the only one who is holding me back.
Many opportunities pass me by and I let them go.
Then I sit back with my shoulda, coulda, wouldas when I actually could have known
what it would have been like if I had of chased my dream.
Sometimes I think about all the things I could have seen
and all the things I could have done.
Sometimes I think about all the achievements I could have won.
Life's no fun when you're only dreaming.
Now I know that I am going to have to wake up if I want to start achieving.
