Be like the Waves:

I sit on the bay of the sand

Watching the peaceful waves roll in with the tide

The waves know  what they are supposed to do

The waves know what they are supposed to be

Why can't I know that?

I want to know what I'm supposed to do 

Who Im supposed to be

That would bring me Peace

Trying to figure out these questions 

Brings me more confusion

The waves become more violent

A storm is rolling in

It reminds me of who I am

In the midst of confusion and conflict

Just trying to be like the waves

Knowing what I am supposed to do 

And who I am supposed to be

Trying to find peace
