Life can be complicated it can be bitter and tough
So many good through life thinking they just aren't enough
We look at our lives seeing just our history
but every second you decide who you're going to be
One thing we have in common is yesterday, today, tomorrow
And we all have our share of torments, suffering and sorrow
When the day comes and you breath your last
You'll have no more future it will all be your past
The past can form us and shape who we'll be
But its is a unique education if you use your history
The future hasn't happened but don't get taken for a ride
Use your past in the now and your future you decide
They say we should be present and live in the now
What does that mean and they never tell you how
Its simple just remember you aren't the result of what you've done
Add to your identity your intention and focus on what will come
Your past has happened what's done is done
It's unique to you but you arent the only one
All your trials and pain may make you feel defeated
There's always someone who had it worse yet somehow they succeeded
your history
The future hasn't happened but don't get taken for a ride
Use your past in the now and your future you decide
Here we are today despite all your pain and trauma
Maybe your a total mess living through a life after drama
Maybe you need to stop the roller coaster and leave it
You can change your future history but you must determine and believe it
Living in the now living here today
You're formed by your past but still do have a say
Don't let the past define who you are
Look to tomorrow and shine like a star
The past is past but use it to inform who you want to be
One day your future will be your past you can decide what we will see
your history
The future hasn't happened but don't get taken for a ride
Use your past in the now and your future you decide
