"Get Going"

We all gotta get to where we’re going
But it’s hard to get
If it's in the unknowing
I wish for love
I wish for peace
I look for happiness within me
And then I realize
And I see
It’s a blessing to be this free, cuz
Some pray for guidance
Some pray for needs
I know some who pray just for keeps
So when they finally get what they seek
All those prayers,
They seem to cease
We all gotta get to where we’re going
But it’s still hard to get
If its still in the unknowing
I loved once
And there it stops
Mainly 'cuz it hurt a lot
I was young, and my heart was old
So as I aged
So did my soul
Now everything: it’s a test
You win the game
You get the prize in my chest
And many will play
While he remains
Til the day, he’s just one in the same
We all gotta get to where we’re going
But it’s hard to get
When we move this slowly
I got these friends
And they’re here for life
They’re good for me
So I know this is right
All the time I try to fight
But what’s the point
If the bonds are this tight
They get me quick
They got me now
It’ll be a cold day
Before I let them down
And despite it all
When they’re around
I guarantee, my choice is sound
We all tryin to get where we going
But if you don’t make it
Then we’ll be knowing
Though I don’t wanna judge
I’m not here for that
We were each put here
To solidify paths
If it wasn’t right for you
Then maybe it’ll work for me
Make a few switches
Then possibly
I’m gonna make it
And I want the same for you
So when it’s all narrowed up
And you’ve made it through
When you’re all done
Come check on me too
I’ll be chillin in the sun
With my bit of shade
To cast away the un-made few
Still tryin to get where they’re going
But it’ll stay hard
If they keep tryin to control it
These days are only so many
It took me a while
Just to learn
But you shouldn’t count
When there is plenty
Lucky to see one
Better hope for two
But only if you promise
To enjoy each day through
When the prayers get answered
And the blessings come your way
That’s when you give thanks
For that day
We’ll all end up where we were going
And even though its in the unknowing
I’ll be happy and it’ll be showing
