The idea of you

Let me just start by saying, that,
the idea of you, is a light-bulb.
And that you control the switch.

When you walk into a dark room,
the idea of you lights it all up.
From the corners of the freshly painted wood ceiling,
to the corners of the well-appointed carpeted floor.
The idea of you,
lights the way before you.
The idea of you,
illuminates the gloom off your shadows.
The idea of you,
distinctly defines the shade of your paintings.
The idea of you,
precedes you, introduces you, defines you.

Why? Because the idea of you,
is bigger than you.
Bigger than you, your idea of you.

You could already be the idea of you,

but you playing.

You keep postponing, you say you're shy,

you keep delaying, you don't want to try,

you keep sleepwalking, you're afraid to fly,

you just talk about it, and all you do is cry,

because nothing's changing,

you're playing.

To understand the idea of you,

you need to understand that,

no two paths are ever the same.

You're like a path, 

with your own destination.

That journey of a thousand miles

won't walk itself...

You have the first step to make,
and it's always the hardest.
The first step doesn't have to be perfect,

you have a thousand miles ahead

to make it right.

You are like a shooting star,

you're fleeting and for a moment,

but when you wish upon it,

the wish lives forever.

The wish, understand this,

is the idea of you.

It lives forever.

Legends, people who made history,

for a fleeting second,

made a wish,

took their first step,
quit their playing and

switched their light-bulb on.

Rise to the occasion, little bird..

Spread your wings and 

fly at the altitude of the idea of you.

Dive into the depths of your being, lil' fish..

Kiss the waters around you

and swim in the idea of you.

Thank you.
