Holding On - It Prevails

It's funny how the time runs out
And the window of opportunity
That you've been waiting for all your life
Just seems to slip right by
It's our chance to take it
Where most will break it
We will hold onto the feeling of living for ourselves
It starts in this moment right now
It's something you can't let pass you by
It will be haunting you for the rest of your life
I've seen it in my elders
Bitterness towards the fact we're living for our dreams
That's something that they never could quite complete
Or even have the heart to try it
How will we ever know if you can't even put yourself out there
