I have all the time in the world
Everything that needs to be done I can do
There will always be a tomorrow
The moment is so replete with such bounty
It’s like I will never die
I will never run down
I will never fall apart

My prospects are so beautiful
I look forward at opportunity
My road is set in front of me
It’s such an easy path
The path is so easy to walk on
I have a spring in my step and a smile on my face
Every day is a new day
New joys to be experienced
My hopes rise so high whenever I think I’ve been reborn
As if everything is going to be okay again
So I grow nervous with contentment and know that only the best is coming
But I get there and nothing has changed
What if I had dreams?

What if I had all the time in the world?
What if I could do everything that needs to be done?
What if there is a tomorrow?
What if this moment-this very moment-were replete with bounty?
It’s like I will never die
I will never run down
I will never fall apart

I used to get so excited that the new day came
I woke up before the sunrise
I used to be young
Before I ever grew attached to anyone
I had nothing to fear
No worries
No real future
That was a blessing
Every day was a day set apart for glory
I stopped being alive when I had a use for tomorrow
Because that’s when I started deferring life
Categorizing activities based on importance
I even learned that there were somethings I couldn’t do
Maybe I grew up, but I learned nothing
I actually forgot certain very important things

But I have all the time in the world
Everything that needs to be done I can do
There will always be a tomorrow
The moment is so replete with such bounty
It’s like I will never die
I will never run down
I will never fall apart

Pressure is supposed to push me forward, not down
