Instead of pulling backwards, I’m going to look this way. -----> MOVE FORWARD. Shift out of reverse. What’s was Is what has already happened Cemented in its place in history Indisputable fact Not so indisputable to ********** who want to talk about existentialism But those moments are gone Those opportunities, lost That’s air you already breathed, In and out of your lungs like THAT. You’d get arrested For driving on the left hand side of the road Because that’s the wrong way Unless you’re Britain, Who still needs to prove their righteousness In totally weird ways. The rest of us are more humble. When you put on our uniform Make sure you kick the ball in the right goal Otherwise the PG comedy reality comes to fruition. I can do nothing about yesterday; Tomorrow scares the **** out of me. But today, I can do. I can make it through. I can go that way.
