The time to change
is now.

The time to lay
your cards down.

The time
to sleep.

The time to change
like seasons.

The time is now
to hear the trains.

Get off at
the next stop.

The time to
realize this rodeo

is a losing game.
Time to change now.

From slim
to bone to grass.

Time to realize
your math is wrong.

Time to realize
you need to hold on.

Perseverance over
every thing.
