Excused no more

The easiest thing in life is to

Make excuses just like I do

Find a reason to bail yourself out

Navigate tricky situations without

Being accountable to anyone

Including yourself, never taking action

Staying passive, being ready always

With excuses conjured in creative ways..

*

You slip through cracks, navigate your way

Through difficulties in life, until one day

There is no credible excuse that you can find

In that moment you have to galvanize your mind

And act to solve the problem before you

You have to prove there is something you can do..

*

You realize being proactive actually feels good

Instead of making excuses, you should

Try to see each problem as a challenge new

You did well being passive, who knows where action would take you?
