Here and Now

I take in the outdoor view
Finally 5 minutes to myself
Theres a boy hanging with his crew
While another keeping to himself

Everyday is the same
I punch in my hours, i use up my days
Thinking now what a shame
To have my life fall in these ways

Theres so much more out there
Things money can't buy
Dollar bills dont compare
To our natural high

The need to be here and now
Be with those you love
Theres only so much you'll allow
If you put work above

That tree dont look the same
That child has grown from yesterday
You have only yourself to blame
When you dont live in today

If work has you drowned
These little things you'll surely miss
Not appreciating the moments and people around
Thereby having nothing but work to reminisce
