Extraordinary

Life... You start out with what you know
You start out learning
Making mistakes
Accepting life

You then take on what they want for you
Making them your own
Making them your realities
Thinking this is what life has for you

Just this

You live under a realm of what you know
Of what you think you need
Making complacency your friend
Taking life and its mediocracy

Years go by
Life passes you by
You find out one day
Was this what your life was truly meant for

Is this all that is left
What else is there
Why can’t life get interesting
Nothing seems enjoyable

So then why do you take it and become comfortable with it

Then one day you wake up
And realize this isn’t what you wanted for yourself
This isn’t what you were meant to give to the world
Then where else do you go

Where else can you go
How do you start all over
How do you give yourself more
To create a new you

Even your loved ones see that there is more to you than this
Then why hold yourself back
Why keep holding on to false hopes
Someone else’s dreams

Then you remember your dreams
Then you start to have your visions
You have an urge to break them free
To allow the world to take them too

You find the world has finally given you possibilities
That it isn’t about to let you lay there anymore
It tells you and screams at you and beckons you

BE MORE
CREATE MORE
LISTEN MORE
JUST DO YOU

Then finally life isn’t giving you mediocracy
It wants to make you extraordinary
Like you were meant to be
