Drive

Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I, I can’t help but ask myself
How much I let the fear take the wheel and steer

It’s driven me before
And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal
But lately I’m
Beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel

Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
With open arms and open eyes, yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
I’ll be there

So if I decide to waiver my chance
To be one of the hive
Will I choose water over wine
And hold my own and drive?
Oh

It’s driven me before
And it seems to be the way, that everyone else gets around
But lately I’m
Beginning to find that when I drive myself, my light is found

Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
With open arms and open eyes, yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
I’ll be there

Would you choose water over wine?
Hold the wheel and drive

Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
With open arms and open eyes, yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there
I’ll be there

Lyrics and song by: Incubus

Lead singer: Brandon Boyd explains, “The lyric is basically about FEAR, about being driven all your life by it and making decisions from fear. It’s about imagining what life would be like if you didn’t live it that way.”

Not being ruled by Fear. I get it. It can be easier said than done. 

Because we are constantly being bombarded. 

Market up 68% and GDP up over 3 trillion from when this magazine was issued in 2018

Market up over 265%, GDP up over 8 trillion from 2011.

The fear mongering isn’t isolated to just the U.S.

Just to make sure they don’t miss any region or country; they’ll just name the whole world. We should all be living in a state of constant fear.

Brandon Boyd of the band Incubus incapsulated it so well when he said, “It’s about imagining what life would be like if you didn’t live it that way.”

Let’s not only imagine it, let’s live it.
