Mental Break

I need a break from the worry
Of always striving to to do my best
I need a break from decision making
Of putting my judgement to the test

I need a break from the fear
Of doing something wrong
It’s what paralyzes the most
Makes me the opposite of strong

Try to take a step away
But the problems follow you
A choice you made yesterday
Comes around to haunt you

You think you’re flying high
And something sneaks in
Hits you on your blindside
Knocks you on your rear end

So take a moment, or a day
To stop and catch your breath
From your troubles turn away
So they only see your back

Sometimes all it takes
Is to put your focus somewhere else
Give your troubles for a while
Help you cure yourself

Then time comes the daily grind
You’re having at it once more
Facing all the toils and troubles
On wings like eagles soar
