Always promised yet it never arrives
The sight of tomorrow drives our lives
Hoping it will bring new and different
Taking us to where we want to be

But what we have is today
It will be here always and always will stay
Keeping us tied to what we are
A gate between what we have and what we want

Tomorrow today a difference of 24 hours or less
Hours that are nothing in a lifetime so why the stress
Take today and pretend its tomorrow
Make that change now

Why wait for a day that will never be
Look at yourself and make you what you want to be
Life is yours to live to the fullest
Don’t be restraint by a single day
