Jim Session - Journey lyrics

[Intro: Silas] Yeah, so we're on our way, gonna get going See this life's a journey and on this journey There'll always be some ups and some downs And even though there are distractions on our paths You can't lose sight of the bigger picture So just hold up for one second, look around you - and take it all in [Hook: Silas] Now take a moment to reflect, take a step back Don't you realize? One life is all we get So let's be thankful for what we got Go through life with a smile and live it up (2x) [Verse 1: Silas] So here I go, on my journey, on my way Thoughts floating through my head - I got so much left to say But I got so little time to spare and lots of things to do Can't even clear my head cause I'm always on the move Phone buzzing, clock ticking - sickness of a generation No time to wait - What is "patience"? “I don't know, never heard of it before I just ordered my food, but no one's knocking at my door And I gotta leave soon, cause I'm always in a rush" Gotta do this, gotta do that - come on man, hold up - Can't you understand that, that's not how it's meant to be You're moving too fast, so fast you will never see All the beauty of this world, all the finer things All the joy in the little things and what it brings So while you're on your way - open up your eyes ‘Cause every insignificance could be a blessing in disguise [Hook] [Verse 2: B.g. Bene] Now take a second to reflect, you just soak it all in Let the wind carry you, like feel the breeze man But just remember this journey starts within you You'll find yourself swimming in deep waters Just don't panic or overreact, 'cause if you ain't got no patience They might be reluctant to take the bait That's why they say the road is less traveled You better be convincing, you better make them wanna take the bait Don't just follow other footsteps, you get it? You just got to create your own little journey Once you take a step, just keep on going man There might be bumps and bruises, but nothing too effusive So I leave the rest up to you - You can keep on day dreaming and let it whoosh all past you But I don't wanna be the one ending up like that Even every suspense could be a blessing in disguise, man [Hook] [Outro: Silas] Let's live it up, live it up So be thankful for what you got Go through life with a smile and live it up
