They Ain't Far Behind

Altercations, situations, aggrevations
Rain on my parade
Can you pour me a glass of that fine
Whining about, someway somehow, getting up out
Common place charades
Can you cut me that practical slice

Oh, I know
Your glass seems half empty
Take a breath, look to the left
And under that tree

Have you seen the night in the eyes of those boys
Chasing them lightning bugs a step behind
Told me that they gonna conquer
The world one bug at a time
They ain't far behind

Reservations, complications, hesitations
Through but so weak
Let me tell you where you missed the
Marking x's and your o's, your words just show
A self-saturated leak
Let me give you a list of ways to tweak

Sir, I don't apologize for being forward
But those boys, those boys, they keep on teaching me
Folks they gotta have something they movin' towards
Swapping limitations for their destiny
