Conquer the Crossroads

A "lyrical poem" (aka song lyrics) about being at a junction in your life, figuring out which way to go, and of course powering through it. Enjoy! Last Modified 1-31-15

She took a walk one day
Under the beautifully dark midnight bay
In order to say “how meaningful is today?”
While waking up each day to take a chance at life!

With the street on her feet
And the world in broad vision
She’s taking a chance in the windy city,
Where goals and wishes and dreams can come alive
It’s time to move forward right now…

Growing up is an endless battle
Living life through challenge’s lenses
With exploring the skies as a massive place
It’s time to brightly shine right now…

She said that anyone can do anything you immerse your full self into…
Even if some steps are missed you can still make forward progress
But once those crossroads are met in full force
Between a dream and toxic wasteland it’s better to stay on course
Just find out where to drive
And make sure quitting never ever happens (happens, happens)

Conquer the crossroads, conquer the crossroads...

How do you walk along and win the game?
When your current path feels all fogged up
And you try to clean it up and pray that it will shine
Don’t let yourself get eaten by fear
Don’t let yourself get swallowed by haters
Don’t tell yourself you’re less than what you really are
Just continue on forward and conquer those crossroads all day! (all day, all day)

Continuing down the strip of pride
While she’s trying to glide with lots of stride
It’s time to strut your stuff right now!
(down the rainbow road)

You can only succeed by being bold and brave
As she holds her humble heart upon her sleeve
It’s steadily transforming at life’s junction signs
Becoming the beautiful lion she strives to be
Prancing through the master stage
It’s time to level up right now!

But at those junction signs
*screams* What to do? What to do?
What the fuck do I do?*
Just keep moving forward
It’s time to be decisive
And not get trapped in life’s loops
It’s time to start living right now!

Conquer the crossroads (x 4)

And then she asks,

How do you walk along and win the game?
When your current path feels all fogged up
And you try to clean it up and pray that it will shine
Don’t let yourself get eaten by fear
Don’t let yourself get swallowed by haters
Don’t tell yourself you’re less than what you really are
Just continue on forward and conquer those crossroads all day! (all day, all day)

Just continue on forward and conquer those crossroads all day! (all day, all day)

Just never give up and keep on going and conquer those crossroads for life!
