It's Time To Press On

Its Time To Press On


Am I living for today maybe waiting for tomorrow
Or stuck in the past somewhere not yet forgotten
I think Im looking up ahead for the clearing
Cause Everything behind me seems lost and rotten

I know that in the past lies the path
That paved the way to where I am going
But what lays ahead is still unclear
I proceed With caution not knowing

I want to free myself from the chains
That are binding and that with I am enslaved
I want drop them here and now before
upon my soul are eternally engraved

I know I have made many mistakes
Many wrong turns I have made
I want to move forward with my life
Before the correct path begins to fade

I want to pull myself around
Back into the right direction
Where I found myself now
Is a result of my own misconception

Im the one that made the decisions that
Have lead to where I stand today
And Im the one who now decides
Its time to move in another way

Though Ill always remember and cherish
Many of the times in the past
Ill try to heed the lessons I learned
Even though they went by so fast.

I know if stop Ill catch myself
Dwelling and standing there
The rest of my life is moving on
With or without me it doesnt care

Time will always move forward no matter
Whether were ready or think its fair
So I move on now, me and myself
Such a wild and crazy pair

I hope that I am living for today with
An eye on whats coming tomorrow
And I leave the past behind
And no longer carry its sorrow.

Responsibility for our journey and the need to let go of the past and move on to the future I really enjoyed this journey and the inspiration
it holds for living in the future
