Carpe Diem You Said

Carpe Diem you said And I ponder that line as I sit here in bed Seize the day; don’t stop ‘til you’re dead Don’t fight with your fists, but with your head. Be the rebel they used to be Be the inspiration you want to see Chase your dreams, fulfill your destiny It was meant for you, like the sand for the sea Go after the life that you want Turn away as they tease and taunt Even though their words will haunt And they tower over you and daunt. Be free and choose your life Fulfill the dreams you dream at night Follow your heart, it’s always right Never let your dreams go out of sight. You told me to hold on To the things that fill my heart with song Don’t let them tell you that you’re wrong Don’t be afraid though the road is long. And I won’t forget these things you said Carpe diem ‘til you’re dead I won’t fight with my fists, but with my head It’s the most powerful tool in your tool shed.
