Headed for that day of reckoning
Many years beyond the fast lane
What to leave in, what to take out
A worn life there’s much to explain
The path wonders from best intentions
Decisions, faulty reasoning blowing back
Too much time chasing the wrong dreams
Moments playing on our life’s soundtrack
Humble Attempts to make amends
Rejected with malice, misunderstood
Cut the past and leave it behind
To correct our faults and call it good
The ignorance of youth burns away
A developing mind will grow to the light
Nurturing an imprint of love or hate
The wiring of the soul etches foresight
Our solitary light must lead the way
Magnetic fields help distinguish north
False readings validate bad choices
The horizon disappears we stumble forth
And in the end whatever journey we own
Fooled or knowledgeable it’s us
The clarity of our conscience will speak
Our life yields plenty to discuss
Ticket 2 Ride
