By Kevin Alan Lamb

He didn’t know love until he tasted it
Good thing it didn’t find him then because he would have wasted it
Too busy chasing dreams in the place of it

Climbing mountains until he learned to fly
They told him he couldn’t change the world but he slept better knowing he wouldn’t have to tell his kids he didn’t try

Nothing worth anything happens overnight
When they tell the tale of good vs evil there will only be two sides to the fight
With one foot in and one foot back, you might of well as stayed lying on the tracks

He was given the gift of life to tell a story of a train bound for glory
He was given a Good Sign as a device for those Bob Dylan spoke to when he said “don’t think twice”

He didn’t know love until he tasted it
It’s a good thing it didn’t find him because he would have wasted it
When his kids ask how he changed the world he’ll tell them it was because he was busy chasing dreams in the place of it.

Don't think twice

–My songwriting ability is improving… I wrote this driving back from my best friend’s wedding in Pittsburgh this weekend.

By Kevin Alan Lamb

By Kevin Alan Lamb

Get busy livin
Get busy lovin
Shake your ass and move your feet cuz good times are comin!

We all have worries
We all have doubts
There is immense light within us
And it’s time we let it out

Been fighting the good fight now
Twenty eight years strong
Been working on finding my voice
Hiding my love away in songs

I’m a positive person some people say
Was it a choice or did God make me this way?
I write these words with tears in my eyes
Heading west on the freeway

Heading home to a place that won’t be much longer
Optimistic for what’s to come
The road ahead to make me stronger
And the Hunger in my heart to carry me farther

Some people hoard wishes
Others stockpile debts
I sweat my way to autonomy
Lived for more than sex

Busy chasing dreams
I was laughed at for having
A choice and commitment to build an army
That will never harm me

Sure I have scars
Probably more than most
But I find a way to carry on
Not busy chasing ghosts.
