I wake up terrified when I open my eyes
Thinking am I really still working the same 9 to 5
Thinking is this really going to be the rest of my life
I fear I will be to scared to ask myself why
Or who or what or how or when
To find out who i'm meant to be within
Like why am i here working a job I never liked
What am I willing to do to live the life I deserve
How will i get it if i don't dream big
when will I wake up happy to start another day


See these are the question that keep me up throughout the night
No wonder why I can't sleep right
I’ve settle at this home I built
Unwilling to walk out that door
To finally see that i'm meant for more
This house could be on fire
And I still think I would die here
Because i'm too afraid to walk out that door

See if I only knew
What really lied behind
And the true happiness
That I would truly find
The joy that would fill my lungs when I took that first breath and step
How i’d finally be able to forget the rest of my problems
Because I would finally be able to say
I'd solved them
Or how I couldn’t wait to start my day
Then be a little sad that it went away
Yet I would remember it is OK
Because i’d know another one is coming my way

So I stare at the that door
Asking myself
what makes me special
More than anybody else
To live a life that felt more than right but perfect
Then the answer was way to clear
As I heard it screaming in my head then out my ear
It told me the one thing that I feared
Nothing!!!
Nothing make me special if i just stand here
So I reached for that handle to open that door
But it didn’t want to swing past the wooden floor
So I banged and I shout
For it to let me out
Then kicked the door open without a doubt
That this is what I want
That there is more than just this home to see
That I could finally be the me I want to be

So down went that door
No longer a prisoner
Of my own creation
Free to take any path I choose
Because they are all paths I've never taken
So one step at a time is what i’ll take
Because a life lived my way is never a mistake
