Travler
If its all the same to you I think I'll stand
Though my travels made me weary
This stance I take is strong
And I have no doubt my legs will hold me
Now I know I'm not what you expected
Nor am I what you requested
But ask yourself
Aren't I what you need?
Don't nod your head
Don't blankly aqueous
Listen to what I'm saying child
Tell me, what do you think?
To get here I walked a long way
And so I witnessed great things
To share them would deny you ambition
For a dreamer like you needs to see
Imagine yourself as you truly are
Pretend that nothing holds you back
Wistful you've been
But alone you refrain from wandering
Feel safe for I am here now
To help you to explore
Knowing all that I do
I can teach you about yourself
Now lift yourself from your thrown
Made from fears and hesitation
Step forward with your eyes shut
But your soul and mind wide open
No longer are you a lamb
Whose Shepard has grown neglectful
Survival is not just living
And you are more than you accepted
If its all the same to you I think I'll stand
From here my will is stronger
I'll prompt you as you grow
You and i both know you cannot stay here
A travler always grows weary
In body not in spirit
The adventures i offer you
Will fill that which you cannot
I know I am not what you wanted
And this will not always be fun
Ask yourself is it worth it
And notice that it has already begun
Though my travels made me weary
This stance I take is strong
And I have no doubt my legs will hold me
Now I know I'm not what you expected
Nor am I what you requested
But ask yourself
Aren't I what you need?
Don't nod your head
Don't blankly aqueous
Listen to what I'm saying child
Tell me, what do you think?
To get here I walked a long way
And so I witnessed great things
To share them would deny you ambition
For a dreamer like you needs to see
Imagine yourself as you truly are
Pretend that nothing holds you back
Wistful you've been
But alone you refrain from wandering
Feel safe for I am here now
To help you to explore
Knowing all that I do
I can teach you about yourself
Now lift yourself from your thrown
Made from fears and hesitation
Step forward with your eyes shut
But your soul and mind wide open
No longer are you a lamb
Whose Shepard has grown neglectful
Survival is not just living
And you are more than you accepted
If its all the same to you I think I'll stand
From here my will is stronger
I'll prompt you as you grow
You and i both know you cannot stay here

I know I am not what you wanted
And this will not always be fun

And notice that it has already begun
