"If it was meant to happen,
Then it will happen."
Thus the excuse for your failed dreams.
But this, a lie, is not how it seems.
Things do not just magically occur,
No, you don't just magically procure,
What you need. What you desire,
It doesn't happen, wishes don't inspire.
Get off your ***, do it yourself.
You get what you want, and nobody else.
Don't just wish and hope and wait,
Take an active role in your fate!
You must do it, seek it out,
Stop thinking so much, eliminate doubt.
Praying, hoping, wishing it true,
Won't get as far as a determined you.
So stop believing that "it will be."
End this torturous "wait and see!"
Say what it is that needs to be said,
Get those desires out of your head.
One person decides on "meant to be."
That person is you. Now try it, you'll see.
