Speak up and all heads will go up

Should I go for it or should I stay quiet?

Should I speak up or stay in silence?

Anxiety takes over my mind and body 

How am I going to get through life 

If I keep avoiding everybody?

 

If my quietness and jitters has taught me one thing

It's that courage is all I need. 

Opportunities slapped me in the face everywhere I went 

Although I found out too late what courageous really meant.

 

But what really matters now 

I know the true significance of courage

And that's all I really need to find my purpose.
