the brink of adulthood
on the precipice you stood
staring into the unknown
ready to leap
armed with a plan
we will not reach its end
but it’ll set us off towards a fate
we couldn’t foresee
the feeling of excitement
with a slight bit of caution
can you hear the distant sound of the drums
beating to the rhythm of your new life?
we think it’s a choice
that we have a voice
it’s our decision to step
into this brave new world
is it really though?
or are we just following the flow?
the cards dealt out to us
did they sing the last note before the song began?
there are a million choices
opinions from infinite voices
yet you chose this one
or maybe destiny chose it for you
“I could have turned left
or played it close to the chest”
but the gravity was always pulling you
did you really have a choice?
we were all put on this road
set to this mode
and we’re all doing it, accepting it
it isn’t that bad
