you wait / for the moment, like a watershed / when all you’ve heard and all you’ve read / will push you toward your call // and you wait / the years ahead seem infinite / there’s plenty of time to figure it out / and then you’ll give your all // but you stall / and you stall // get up / get off your seat / move your feet / just do what He said / it’s all in your head / it it’s all in your head // forgetting what’s behind / now’s the time to / go where your led / it’s all in your head / it’s all in your head // you wait / you nod your head and take some notes / and cash your checks and cast your votes / and follow protocol // and you wait / another verse, another song / a sinking sense you’ve got it wrong / you stumble and you stall / and you stall / until that’s all // you wait / you save your best for last / you wait / and then the moment’s passed // whatcha waiting for? / God’s holding the door for you / where ya hiding out? / there’s so much more for you / if you need a prompt / He’s draining the swamp for you / ready with a push / with a shove / with a kick of love // press on / press on for the prize / it lies up ahead / it lies up ahead / it lies up ahead // forgetting what’s behind / now’s the time to / go where your lead / it’s all in your head / it’s all in your head

Behind the Song:
'With a pulsing bass line fronting the melody, this song breaks hard at the chorus, painting a musical picture all-too perfect for lyrics about what happens when independent humans spend too much time analyzing and plotting and theorizing and stalling and strategizing and waiting to do what we already know we’re supposed to do. A clever Furleresque and much-needed reminder to just get on with it... “to forget what’s behind and go where you’re led.”' - Melissa Riddle Chalos
