Preconceptions

Am I avoiding my destiny

If I change what's coming to me?

To take a step in the right direction

& Make your own

You have to

Try to keep your wits about

It gets difficult when you doubt

Everything and everyone

And you won't be outdone

Something small and insignificant

Can change so much

It makes me ask myself

Would I be who I am today

If there had of been a slight change?

If I had a different name?

If the ropes around me started to fray

Would you grab hold or have me erased?

There's nothing I know you don't

There's just more than one way to skin a cat

It's all about the approach & how much you let out of the hatch

If you go too far you'll, you'll never get back

Peering off the edge of the preconceptions I had

The sharper mind beats the stronger hand

The weakest point in the bluntest man

Would I be who I am today

If there had of been a slight change?

If I had a different name?

(I'd like to think I'd be the same)

If the ropes around me started to fray

Would you grab hold or have me erased?

We will never know how much impact we have

(Try to keep your wits about)

We can only try to make what we do important

(It gets difficult when you doubt)

To assure that we don't disconnect

From the people that we affect

But if the ropes around me started to fray

If the ropes around me started to fray
