You gotta act
Act now
Don't fall prey to your fear
You gotta act
Act now
Stay strong and persevere
You gotta act
Act now
Don't let fear guide the way
You gotta act
Act now
'Cause today could be your day
You have to recontextualize
Accept the truth, reject the lies
Observe yourself for what you are
You're capable, you're up to par
Be reasonable, don't try to fight
Be flexible, and see the light
And once you master how to bend
Your mind, you will start to transcend
You gotta act
When you're lying awake by the light of the moon
And you're thinking, "I'm gonna die real soon"
Just listen to the voice that tells you
"That's not helpful"
And when you're on your yoga mat
And wondering how you got so fat
Just listen to the voice that tells you
"That's not helpful"
And when you botch the surgery
And when you trip and spill the tea
Just breathe and sing along with me:
"That's not helpful"
You gotta act
Act now
Don't let fear guide the way
You gotta act
Act now
'Cause today could be your day
