headlights

hey kid i got your text

um

it's hard to keep up with you

you're probably on stage somewhere

i think poughkeepsie

but listen

that's completely out of your control

don't stress about what you can't control

you know that everything's gonna work itself out

okay? it always does

imagine if you were driving from one end of the country to the other

and sometimes

the drive is easy

and sometimes you're driving in the pitch black

and you can't see in front of you

but you got headlights

and that lights up about a hundred feet

and you focus on that hundred feet

and you get through it

and then the headlights focus on another hundred feet

and you keep going and you trust yourself

and you're gonna get to the other end of the country

okay?

good stuff happens to good people

you just gotta be yourself

don't ever change for anyone

keep busting your ass

okay? i'm proud of you kid

tell him i said hi"
