Same Old New Beginning(s)

What the past year has reminded us, is that nothing is for certain
nothing is forever and nothing great happens without a burden

Yet here we are, planning ahead at the beginning of, and like every year
new things to start, new things to buy but with the same lack of fear

It’s been a while since you last tried to make a change for the better
you have managed to succeed in other areas but still didn’t get her

Back at the beginning, back at starting small, back at craving for more
you are now more experienced though and more confident than before

Change is a constant, moreover you now know that, alone can’t get you far
a new beginning will put you closer to failure if you stay the same you are

The only plan you should have in mind when new beginning(s) are setting in
is how you set yourself free, if you do not have time to spend on it to complete

Here’s to new beginnings
for one more time
another try to succeed
another try to survive

Need to reform, no excuses
nothing to complain for
the obstacles from the past
can hold me back no more

I ‘ll put myself together
I ‘ll get on track
this is a promise to myself
there’s no going back

You ‘ve failed to move on
for years and years now
and you are still holding on
still trying to make it somehow

Have you considered changing course?
seems like you are heading wrong
of all your beliefs, do’s and don’ts
continuous adaptation should be on top

Don’t force yourself not to let go
changing plans doesn’t mean giving up
you need to be adaptable you know
if moving on keeps failing try moving up

Re-start Learning

You need to keep learning new stuff
you cannot rely on the things you know forever and that’s tough
because things change and you need to catch up
don’t be relieved with the things you ‘ve learnt so far

It seems that you feel you ‘re getting older
and as a matter of fact you indeed are
but you need to keep learning new stuff
otherwise you let yourself fall back

If you feel you ‘re on top of the world
guess what? you are most probably not
chances are you are on your way down
and your mind’s distracted no doubt

You think and you feel there is no time
to learn new things or at least try
but the weird thing is that you never had
it’s just that now the excuse doesn’t sound that bad

You almost had believed it but something felt wrong
and then you realised it had been wrong all along
because you are not there yet not on top of the world
you are somewhere behind and you need to move on

Your secret desire to reach your ultimate goal
had your mind fooled and thought you stood tall
but the road to freedom is full of traps like this
you are not there yet you are far from finding peace

Put your head together stay focused on your plan
don’t let your desires create the illusion that you are done
remind yourself it’s hard to reach a steady state of bliss
and you should never get tired or bored of learning new things

Take control
put yourself together
first do the hard part then the rest
do things better
and that is all

be sure
be way up above
or better yet way up ahead
think this is what you love
think pure

always prepared
never miss a thing
choose carefully what your next move will be
become the smartest link
never be scared

insight and foresight
how do you get through
before you get into the fight of life
only one thing you must do
decide

on time!

Y.A.Y. (Yet Another Year)

another, hope, life, new, success, sweet floyd, yay, year, yet

yet another year yet another start
yet another rush for creating more art
this time though I do know better
projects that are bound to become an off setter
will have to remain simple ideas at the stage of infancy
until they are mature enough to reach the point of ascendancy

yet another beginning that hopefully will not end wrong
yet another start that has the feeling strong
the feeling of achievement the passion for creating
that yet another end of it will not be disappointing
the missing part of this is the feeling of moving on
the feeling of completion that all the confidence relies upon

yet another journey towards success begins
the mistakes of the last one become my foresee’s
so I am indeed more primed for the challenge ahead
my blood, sweat and tears are my resources and ready to be shed
thus challenge is accepted and by all means yes
another year becomes the start point of the bumpy road to success
