Don’t wait for the perfect moment
For the moment is already perfect
Don’t wait for courage to come
For you already have the courage
Don’t wait for the storm to pass
For the storm will always be there
Don’t wait until they say you can
For they never will
Don’t wait for others to win the battle
For the battle is yours to win
Don’t wait for someone else to do your job
For someone else is always in line
Don’t wait
For you will regret it
