Evolve

I try and try to do my best, Focus on my faults, To change the way I walk this quest, The way I do this waltz, I watch my step, try to perfect, I slip, I trip, I fall, Stand back up, stay erect, I flip, no grip, I stall, Every moment a new obstacle, Have to learn the steps, Practice, be methodical, Working on the reps, Eventually I can change my habits, Keep my flaws in view, Polish, cut, and shine my facets, Pressure bleeding through, I have to leave this chrysalis, Emerge a brand new man, Destroy my inner incubus, Transform my entire plan, I can stand above my past, Leave it all behind, Molten metal, new future cast, Time does not rewind. Embrace the strife, Reinforce the life, Remove the knife, Love my wife. Be a better man.
