All You've Gotta Do

All you've gotta do is breathe.
Close you're eyes, count to ten & let it go
There are somethings that just aren't worth it.
No offense, but this is one of those things
Why get your undies in a bundle over the little stuff?
Save your nerves the stress.
Just relax, everything's gonna be okay
You're not gonna die, one day you won't even remember this
Get over your past, move on because there's nothing to change
All you're gotta do is breathe
Turn you're heels & walk away
I know it's hard but it's not worth it
As a wise man once said, "This too shall pass."
Take it with a grain of salt
Or apply any cliche of your choice
Believe it or not, you're not alone in this
Your life is just starting out
Everything gets better.
All you've gotta do is breathe
Who am I to tell you it's all going to be okay?
What do I know of the agony in your chest?
I can't have ever felt that nothingness that grips you.
But I have, I feel it at this very moment
How can I know that it will all  turn out okay?
Those shoes you're wearing?
I've put them on & taken them off far too many times
Trust me when I say, there is so much more waiting for you.
All you've gotta do is breathe
Get past this part of your life, hold on
Someday soon you'll wake up & those shoes will be gone
Their voices & actions will be far behind you.
For now, you've got me to lean on
& I won't rest until you do what you've gotta do & breathe.
