Don't Try

 

Don’t try
It may imply that you’re giving yourself some wiggle room
In case you fail
There may be some obstacles too big to overcome
Therefore it questions your dedication
Your determination to get it done

Don’t half ass it and then expect to get great returns
Nothing special comes out of mediocrity
It is as they say, you reap what you sow
And if your mode is to be average
You’ll never stand out, if you know what I mean

I guess the important thing here is to be honest
Do you really want to accomplish what you set out to do?
Taking all the unknowns into consideration
Will you get discouraged if things get too complicated?

All bullshit aside
It should be noted that when you say you’ll try
It’s like a passive voice command you communicate to your brain
You say you’re sick and tired
Stuck in the same rut
And go back to that cycle until you finally decide to…
“Go all the way”
