I scheduled a trip
I don't know where I'll stay just yet
Got that bit of dough
I dreamed of hiking and landing
Landing and hiking
Staring across a horizon I don't know
I love the taste of freedom
I value my own time.

I know I'll need it
I know I'll deserve it
Sometimes I act like I'm the queen of the castle
And sometimes others do too
But really I'm just a vulnerable young woman
Who put herself in the position she's in
And she just wants to do some good.

I've been thinking about how I want to be more
Of a philanthropist
And a little bit less of a salesmen
Lately.

I'm gonna write a book someday
A book about it all
I enjoy and I let go expectation
Trying to release even when my body has had it
Keeping my temper in check
Breathing and releasing
Breathing and releasing.

It's been a full life.
