Embrace It
As you drive down the freeway
Trying to escape your memories or fate,
I hope you'll enter a journey of self-discovery.
The age of ancient adventures
Will not return;
There are no romantic wars
To help a young man conquer the world.
There is no path to a new reality,
There is no roadmap to love
That exists outside your soul and mind.
You can waste decades of your time
Trying to find what has never been lost,
You can lose sight of who you really are
Pursuing someone you should never be.
Wake up to the summer dawn of your existence
And appreciate the gift of the present moment:
There is nothing that you will encounter
That your precious breath and resilience
Cannot redeem with beauty once you embrace it.
