I have so much on my plate

My biggest fear is that I am too late,

afraid what my actions would cost,

scared of leaving anything to fate,

I have so much on my plate,

 

My worst nightmare is that i won't make it

Simply because i am my biggest critic,

with every night that comes i repeatedly tell myself,

          Don't quit, don't quit,

As I hide behind the words I create,

I have so much on my plate

 

Who knows what father time has in store

I know for a fact I don't want to stay still

but rather explore,

Find the most exciting thrill

From the most highest mountain,

to the lowest valley,

Every nook and cranny,

to the dirtiest alley,

Hell, I would have love to meet John and Annie,

Who met when they were kids

and died together at the age of ninety

 

It would be great if we all knew our fate

Truth be told, we all have so much on our plate
