Choose It Well

[Verse 1]
We trade our hours
for a glowing screen,
scrolling through
a life we’ve never been.

Days fall quiet,
nights repeat,
dreams grow old
on the edge of sleep.

Time isn’t loud
when it slips away,
no goodbye,
no word to say.

One more “later”,
one delay—
and a year
just walks away.

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not about
how fast we run,
but knowing why
we’ve just begun.

[Chorus]
If life is brief,
then choose with care.
Every step,
every yes,
every prayer.

Not every road
is worth the cost,
not every win
is worth what’s lost.

[Verse 2]
Living awake,
not burning out.
Listening more
than chasing loud.

Some fires warm,
some only scar—
wisdom knows
the kind they are.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
We don’t live best
by acting blind,
but staying here,
one breath at a time.

[Chorus]
If time is limited,
choose what stays.
Hands that build,
not just display.

It’s not “no tomorrow”
we pretend to see,
today still asks
responsibility.

[Bridge]
Not every risk
is brave or true,
some are just fear
in a louder suit.

Living fully
doesn’t mean to flee,
sometimes it’s
standing still
and choosing to be.

[Final Chorus / Outro]
So I live aware,
not reckless, loud.
I place my heart one chance
where it counts.

One life,
to choose it well—
You only live once…
YOLO.
