You have one life, why not live it?
Chasing dreams gambling on time
Looking for adventure hoping to shine
Finding success and failures along the way
Traveling the world nowhere permanent to stay
Loving life and the people I meet
Just the clothes on my back and shoes on my feet
Knowing this won’t last forever wishing it could
How long can I ignore all the “but you should”
Should I change my love of life is it time I got a clue
Should I really act and behave as rigid as you
Work and then work some more you rarely live
You spend all you make with little to give
I rarely hear you laugh I have never seen you cry
You gave up your soul you have lost your wings to fly
Without wings our souls are stuck in a dreaded race
A race with no end no change in scenery or pace
Instead of me changing maybe you should join in my cause
I know the freedom scares you and gives you pause
Freedom from doing everything others say is right
Caring about something different with nothing to fight
Discovering the world each day finding a new toy
Living life, discovering all God created for us to feel and enjoy
