I hold on to it tight
So it doesn’t fly away
The humble rumble of freedom
Destiny at play
My emotions, a chess board
A game I’m not aux fait
Fumbling clumsily
Skin turning grey
Master the game
And I master my life
Move the wrong piece
And I’ve landed in strife
Slow and steady does it
Learn to breathe deep
Silence is a game plan
Bluffing is weak
Every loss is a lesson
New opportunities come fast
Stay in the present
Let go of the past
Know my opponent
Learn how they play
No need to rush here
Nor wish my life away
Master this game
And I’ve mastered my life
