As the opportunities arise, I grow impatient Wanting greatness ever so quick Anxiety sets in Living in a cycle wondering is this it I see fear as failing every area regularly I wasn't born to be regular I know I'm great but am I prepared for the next step Am I truly ready I believe I am I used to have faith I used to have hope Then one day I realized why should I hope for things that I know If I know it's going to get done Why stress it Why not sit back and appreciate the blessings You know, slow down and smell the roses Seems like I blinked and 5 years went by How did I end up here No How did I start up here Am I great Or am I just like everybody else Not knowing what's next or what's left When partners fade away and your journey becomes singular I think I'm just as scared as everybody else The unknown can make you that way Lingering wonders of daily ideas Game plans of my immediate future I remember the dark days so vividly Not feeling like this was real Like everything was make believe Do I really understand the powers I have Am I underestimating myself Me The cordial pep talker The one who shines light into everyone else's day Am I really doubting what I can do What's wrong with me No What's right with me Does it matter if I'm wrong or right Is that type of caring a sign of life Why do I want to be great so bad What does that gain for me Will I use my powers for selfishness or for promotion of others Alot of these answers I KNOW But why is it so hard to act on these answers Will I continue to cause inexcusable damage Will I continue to cross the Atlantic for bridge burners Why haven't I settled down Are my standards too high When my opportunities continue to arise will I take them in stride Where's my pride I know what I am I'm great I'm chosen I'm ready Greatness awaits me
