No Promises - Fired Up

Weighted down with doubt

Chained up with change

Life is moving fast

And nothing is the same

It’s hard to find

The words to speak

And harder to grab

What’s just out of reach

No promises

And I’m learning this

I can’t take for granted

What hasn’t happened yet

No promises

And I’m learning this

There’s no such thing

As a safe bet

Like so many I’m searching

For something to count on

Step back and look how we forget what we have

And then realize it can be gone so fast

We want to know what’s next

Want to believe that we all know the kicks life has up its sleeve

No promises

And I’m learning this

I can’t take for granted

What hasn’t happened yet

No promises

And I’m learning this

There’s no such thing

As a safe bet
