There's a metaphorical flow to it all you know
It might be spiritual, influenced by God
Or quantum molecular, matter influencing thoughtlessly
But we all see the speed of life

Sometimes life is an obstacle course
Adversity and adventure ever present
Action helping shake the dust off the bones

Sometimes the boat leads you
Water taking you to the place you planned
Your jigsaw skin fitting more comfortably

Sometimes though
The reality wraps around your feet with a binding
And the signposts only show question marks

When that happens remember how the flow works
Even at one mile an hour, a day, a week
You are still moving
You're the only one with the brake

Unstoppable is still unstoppable
No matter how fast you go
