Life’s a racing river and I’m watching it fall,
Right past the dock of my youth, it’s a sobering view,
Every season I wasted, every chapter asking, “Who?
Are you going to be when the moments run out?”,
I was stuck in the mirror, full of fear and of doubt,
But I looked past the surface, past the pride and the rage,
Saw a man in the making, turning a fresh new page,
I love who I am, that foundation is stone,
But the house needs some work, I can’t do it alone,
Time is ticking loudly, a whisper, a shout,
The future is calling, and there’s no better time than now.
I’m working on the best version of myself, the greatest edition,
I have nothing to prove, I’m on my own mission,
First I have to please God, make my spirit align,
Then I’ll be happy with myself, and that’s the bottom line,
They can watch me evolve, they can watch me ascend,
This change is for my soul, for my Maker, and then for me within.
What is wealth? If your spirit is broken?,
True wealth is a promise, a seed that is planted,
An unbreakable faith,
Air in the struggle, light in the dark,
It’s the reassurance of heaven, a permanent mark,
It’s not in a bank account, it’s not in a safe,
It’s the blessed assurance I’ve been given by grace,
So let them count their money, I’m counting my blessings,
Every single sunrise is a new session.
So when they ask me what I’m chasing, what’s the goal I’m after?,
I tell them it’s not gold, it’s not laughter, it’s not plaster
On the walls of a mansion that’ll rust and decay,
It’s a long, happy, blessed life, living in God’s way,
It’s a soul that’s at peace when the world starts to crumble,
A rock of salvation, when everyone else fumbles,
That is the fortune, the treasure, the prize
Reflected in my Father’s love, right there in my eyes.
The best version of me…
The time is now…
No better time…
For God… and then for me…
A long… happy… blessed life.
Then Peace…
