I gotta keep the momentum going cause I
Don’t want to get through life just by stumbling by
Putting in the work daily sometimes it be getting crazy
Feeling as if I am drowning wishing someone would come save me
But I ain’t waiting cause I got to stay afloat
I’m ‘a figure it out no matter where I go
Moving through the choppy waters passing slow
Lacking wind in my sail I’m ‘a paddle the boat
What else would I do let myself slip into the abyss and get confused
That’s not something I can do
Just keep paddling towards the horizon
And eventually you will see the shore of an island
But is it the island that’s in your dreams?
Or is it the product of someone else’s beliefs
There is no doubt you will arrive time unraveling
The question is, “Who’s map were you using to travel with?”
Infinite horizon, the abyss is deep
You can’t float forever, while you’re out at sea
You must make a decision, what’s it going to be?
Cause eventually you won’t have a choice and you will sink
Nobody will come save you, sadly it’s too late to
Now only the abyss awaits you
So take advantage while you’re afloat
Cause every day that passes is another hole in your boat
