What If

What if I take a chance on trying to study for a test so I can be smarter?
But what if I fail and the material just gets even harder?
What if I push myself too loose weight?
But what if I loose control on what I ate?
What if I have a chance to ask this girl out?
But what if I mess up and it takes us in a different route?
What if I am able to get a better job?
But what if the job goes to Bob?
What if I am able to make a change?
But what if others think different of me and think I am strange?
Why do I live with “what if’s” in my life?
It’s a constant battle of agreement and strife
It’s what causes us to blame
It’s what causes us to be in shame
Of who we are?
But we will never travel far
If we never let go of that fear
That God is always near
That we can become whoever we want to be
If we set ourselves free
