Change

It’s hard to change, it’s really hard to change,
Same old sins in a slightly different range,
Bad habits locked in, clinging to the spine,
Good habits fighting to get a single line,
Any habit,once it settles in the brain are hard to change,

And it’s deeper than the actions, it goes inside the mood,
Try to check the temperature, adjust your altitude,
It’s hard to change your attitude, to look up at the sky,

Even when your spirit’s has a righteous thing to prove,
The path to something better?,that road is still steep,
The uphill climb is jagged and the waters run deep,
It hurts to stay the same, but it hurts to try and grow,
So which kind of difficult are you willing to know?

If it’s hard to stay stuck, and it’s hard to level up,
If the bitter medicine is sitting in the cup,
Then the math is pretty simple, if you look at what is true,
The struggle’s going to cost you either way that you pursue,
So the logical decision when you’re caught up in the fray?,
You might as well be fighting for a better brand of day,
The logical decision is to try and improve,
Even if you stumble, even if…
