THE NEXT LEVEL Lyrics

You go day by day

Month by month

Year by year

Waiting and hoping

For your life to change

Meanwhile

The days go by

The months go by

And the years go by

Until we realise

Our life cannot change

While we stay the same

Becoming who you want to be

Requires moving on

From who you've been

You will only reach your next level

By letting go of where you are

You will only go as far

As you allow your imagination

To take you

Whenever we think

We've considered

And gone over

Everything it will take

To achieve our goals

Dreams

Ambitions

And desires

We must go over our list again

And add patience

The one missing ingredient

To a recipe for success

Is often just simply

Patience

We must stop looking at success

As a distant stranger

Instead

A nearby friend

Who is patiently

Awaiting our arrival

Follow your heart

And your instinct

They know you

Better than you think

I realised

I didn't like the world

As it was presented to me

So I'm taking the parts I do like

Adding some of my own making

And creating a whole new one

Seeing not what is

But what could be

And creating it

Too often

We die from the opinions

Of people

Whom we'll never meet

Often being strong

Is not in how long

We can hold on to things

But in how easily

We can let them go

Many of us

Spend our lives

Searching for happiness

In everything

But an altered state of mind

The only place

Where it is truly found

Some find happiness

Many make their own

Don't give up

Keep going

Often the ones

Who leave

While laughing at you

Come back later

Asking for your advice

I wish you the strength

To pick up

All of your broken pieces

And the patience

To put yourself back together again

I used to wish people the best

Now I wish them

Peace of mind

There's nothing better to have

Than that

There's a time to move swiftly

And a time to stand still

Knowing which to do

And when

Is everything

You are born exceptionally unique

And unlike anyone else

There will never ever

Be another human being

Who is wired exactly like you

We are all amazingly very different

There has never before in history

Been anyone just like you

And there will be

None to come after

So don't try to blend in

Stand out

You are a one of one

Always be yourself

And have faith in you

Know your worth

And the value of your abilities

Know who you are

And who you're not

It's time to push yourself

To the next level
