What's To Be
It is what it is and was what it was, I tell myself this just because
Whats to be I'll come to see, what's said and done I must break free
I choose to rise and not to fall, to stand up straight and not to crawl
I choose to float and not to sink, to stay wide eyed and not to blink
I choose to move and not be still, to ride the wave and feel the thrill
I choose to fight and not to flee, to take on what's in front of me
I choose to live and not to die, to know for sure and not ask why
