You don’t have to second guess me

I have done it to myself

It’s alright, it’s alright

It’s alright now

At least I’m trying

I got nothing else

*

Hollow trophies do not impress me

I don’t want them on my shelf

It’s not just the way we look at things

It’s the story that really tells

**

I know some of you

will share these views

and can relate to these perceptions

*

Between things we say

and what we do

We can’t concentrate on perfection

**

Just get through the days

Welcome calm peace

Get excited just about good stuff

*

Stay aware of grace

and the Earth beneath

Anytime can be good or get tough

**

When we notice how the world tests us

We may have to tell ourselves

I am fine, I am fine

It’s going to be fine

There’s always something else

*

Some new current times will bless us

If time freezes, it can melt

If it is just the way we handle things

It is always how we have felt
