If your dead to how your living, if your numb to how you feel
If your waiting for an answer, on why? to just reveal
If you think that what you write, will make you big some day
Then your going on a journey, that may not go your way
If you live life as a dreamer, if you hope without a care
If your seeing names in big bright lights, that are not even there
If you cling to all believers do, you might just make it through
If you your ears close to doubters, your dreams just might come true
Chorus
But its a hard world to be in, its a hard life to live
You have to choose what to sacrafice, you have to choose what to give
Its a time for reflection, have you got what it takes
There is no time for regrets, no time for mistakes....
If lyrics are inside your soul, if your very being lives a song
If writing is your beating heart, you surely wont go wrong
It has to be your essence, your every breath you take
It needs to play a melody, that never feels its fake
If you feel that you can do it, then try and try again
Trust in all you write, and then trust and trust again
Every ones a critic, everyone knows best, advice is worth nothing
Your the only one, who knows how to lyric the best
chorus
But its a hard world to be in, its a hard life to live
You have to choose what to sacrafice, you have to choose what to give
Its a time for reflection, have you got what it takes
There is no time for regrets, no time for mistakes....
CAT,I like this a lot.But.......I think if you edited some of the words it'd be easier to read/sing.I had a hard time reciting the verses without taking a breath.In a song,you have to place your breaths at the right time or you may mess up a verse.Anyhow,this message should be heard,but most of all sung!
