For several years I was stuck in a rut

It was time for a change, so I trusted my gut

I was doing the same thing for many years

It was time to step out, time to face my fears

 

I wanted to change the world, I have many dreams

They all seem so far away, so it seems

I moved from the stae, of which that I knew

To a place of people, that I know very few

 

I have many goals that I am trying to reach

The children that I love, and the kids I am going to teach

The life that I am living, doesn't seem real

It is all a dream, that is how I feel

 

The path that I am taking, may be kind of curved

I may take a detour or take a few swerves

I will get there, not matter what

I will never let myself be stuck in another rut

 

Through alll the hard times I will keep pushing through

Then I will look back at my life and enjoy the view

Hard times teach us to never give in

That hard work will always prosper and will always win

 

In a few years when I have my teaching degree

I will look back and then I will see

The long hours of studying and work was with the fight

I will be glad I didn't lose hope, and I kept track of the sight

 

Never give up, never lose hope

Never let go, hold on to that rope

It will take time, you may end up losing friends

But I promsie, it will be worth it in the end
