In the quest for gold and glory
We often lose our way
Chasing shadows, fleeting stories
In the light of day
But happiness is not a treasure
Found in riches or in fame
It's a quiet, lasting measure
In a heart that stays the same
Chorus:
Nothing is promised, nothing is due
All that we have is a gift to view
Grateful hearts will see the truth
In every moment, in all we do
We build our dreams on fragile towers
Hoping they'll withstand the storm
Yet true joy is in the hours
Where simplicity is born
For every breath and every sunrise
Is a blessing to behold
When we let go of the disguise
Our hearts no longer cold
Chorus:
Nothing is promised, nothing is due
All that we have is a gift to view
Grateful hearts will see the truth
In every moment, in all we do
Release the need for validation
From the world that spins so fast
Find peace in contemplation
In the moments that will last
Chorus:
Nothing is promised, nothing is due
All that we have is a gift to view
Grateful hearts will see the truth
In every moment, in all we do
So here we stand, with open hearts
Embracing life, its light and dark
With every step, we understand
True joy is ours, it's in our hands
