[Intro: Silas]
Yeah, so we're on our way, gonna get going
See this life's a journey and on this journey
There'll always be some ups and some downs
And even though there are distractions on our paths
You can't lose sight of the bigger picture
So just hold up for one second, look around you - and take it all in
[Hook: Silas]
Now take a moment to reflect, take a step back
Don't you realize? One life is all we get
So let's be thankful for what we got
Go through life with a smile and live it up (2x)
[Verse 1: Silas]
So here I go, on my journey, on my way
Thoughts floating through my head - I got so much left to say
But I got so little time to spare and lots of things to do
Can't even clear my head cause I'm always on the move
Phone buzzing, clock ticking - sickness of a generation
No time to wait - What is "patience"?
“I don't know, never heard of it before
I just ordered my food, but no one's knocking at my door
And I gotta leave soon, cause I'm always in a rush"
Gotta do this, gotta do that - come on man, hold up -
Can't you understand that, that's not how it's meant to be
You're moving too fast, so fast you will never see
All the beauty of this world, all the finer things
All the joy in the little things and what it brings
So while you're on your way - open up your eyes
‘Cause every insignificance could be a blessing in disguise
[Hook]
[Verse 2: B.g. Bene]
Now take a second to reflect, you just soak it all in
Let the wind carry you, like feel the breeze man
But just remember this journey starts within you
You'll find yourself swimming in deep waters
Just don't panic or overreact, 'cause if you ain't got no patience
They might be reluctant to take the bait
That's why they say the road is less traveled
You better be convincing, you better make them wanna take the bait
Don't just follow other footsteps, you get it?
You just got to create your own little journey
Once you take a step, just keep on going man
There might be bumps and bruises, but nothing too effusive
So I leave the rest up to you -
You can keep on day dreaming and let it whoosh all past you
But I don't wanna be the one ending up like that
Even every suspense could be a blessing in disguise, man
[Hook]
[Outro: Silas]
Let's live it up, live it up
So be thankful for what you got
Go through life with a smile and live it up
