Be the Pilot

Feet stuck on the tarmac Heavy with doubt Watching planes rise Hearing the crowd

The old life calls But it's just white noise A whisper drowned

by my own new voice Turbulence won't scare me I’ve learned the

skies I’m done with excuses Done asking why Be the pilot

of your life Not the passenger Grip the wheel Feel the thrill Don't surrender

The clouds are just a curtain Pull them aside Take off Soar high

It's your time to fly Maps crumpled in my pocket Routes undefined

But the compass is steady It’s all in my mind No baggage
