This drive that you have
Does it come from within
The track that you’re on
What satisfaction does it bring
You have your head down
Your heart beats quickly
Where are you going
This track is quite slippery
Some call it progress
Advancing and buying
Does it bring you joy
Or are you just surviving
Do you see an exit
At least the line
That signals success
Or are you blind
See, the track is life
It’s a circle, non-ending
There are exit signs everywhere
If you stop pretending
That the hustle and bustle
The expectation of others
Fulfills your soul
Versus beating your brothers
If you stay on this track
Just know, it’s a hack
A trick into thinking
You’ve made it perhaps
I chose an exit
A fabulous adventure,
Creating my path
Directed by pleasure
The run turned to walk
My head held high
Presence within
I witness the sky
You too have this choice
To walk or to run
To cut a new path
And head for the sun
