[flow]

I’ve been living on borrowed time
since the day I opened my eyes to a new life
I’ve feared letting go of the past
for too long now
it’s time to close the door
it’s time to say goodbye to what I’ve feared the most

I’ve been living on borrowed time
counting down the days, one by one,
watching them go by while I was dancing with my fears
I love my fears, don’t get me wrong,
it’s just that they’ve been blinding me for too long
it’s time for me to let them go;
and flow

I’ve been living on borrowed time
wondering when it’ll come to an end
it’s been 10 years now, 11 almost 
it seems I’m gonna be around for at least 40 more
It’s time for me to learn how to live purposefully

So please teach me how to open up to life
teach me how to stay still 
when all around gets drawn to chaos
and surrender to what I feel
and stay with me when it gets hard;
it’s time for me to listen more 
to what I feel, not what I think
to always return to me when things go south
to always believe in me without a doubt

I’ve been living on borrowed time
I could not be more grateful
I’ve got another chance to try some more
and this time, I have no excuse, I will succeed
I’ll be happy and true to myself
I’ll be honest and honor myself
I’ll be brave and fight for myself
I’ll be open to whatever comes
‘cause this time I do have myself
And I am my safe place
And I am one with the flow

So 2023, hello!
