Growing Up

Growing Up

It's tough being me nowadays
My life spiralling in so many ways
It feels like I'm in a daze
I hope I wake up soon

I worry about so many things
All important to avoid
I'm scared of what Fate may provide
I feel so terrified

Everything's changing
Unknown borders
New responsibilities
Nothing comes and goes with ease

I've spent hours wondering about the future
What will become of me, my family and friends
Will we all stick together
It all depends

Fate is talking in such a big way
Planning my life every day
What if he made a mistake
And gave me a path I was never meant to take

How would this alter reality
How would this affect the world
Would anything really change
If Fate decided wrongly?

I have a destiny
To do great things
But what if I can't achieve my goals
If I decide wrongly?

I've got no choice than to just follow Fate
He will show me the way
I just hope he's decided right
And I in turn have too
For there's nothing worse than knowing what could have been
And dwelling on the past
Life is for living now
I will.
