All I Need
Michael Schulte Lyrics

All my life
Throughout my entire existence

I've been chasing down a dream
I've been pursuing a certain goal or aspiration

But all the moments in between
However, the experiences and memories that I've created in pursuit of that dream are equally important

Yeah that is all I need
Those moments are all that truly matter and satisfy me

Like the moon it pulls the tide
Just as the moon influences the movement of the ocean's tides, this inner music has always influenced and moved me

I've always had this song inside
This inner music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember

Since I was born yeah I can feel it in my veins
It's been a part of me since birth, coursing through my veins

I've been running just to see
I've been in constant motion, trying to discover and pursue the purpose of this song within me

What this is all supposed to mean
Trying to decipher the deeper significance of this song and its purpose in my life

I didn't know but I had so much left to say
Even though I didn't fully understand the meaning of this song, I knew I had more to express and to share with the world

I will look back with no regret
I will reflect on my past without any remorse

Say all the things I should've said
Express all the thoughts and feelings I should have shared earlier

Do whatever matters to me every day
Engage in activities and pursue interests that are meaningful to me on a daily basis

Cause if you don't ask you don't get
One must ask for what they want in life in order to attain it

Gotta believe that this is it
Believe that this moment is the one to seize and cherish

We're gonna live it like there is no other way
We will fully embrace and live in the present moment as if there were no other opportunities to do so

We're making sense of all the mess
We are attempting to understand and derive purpose from the confusion and chaos of life

But we forget these are the memories that we make
However, it's important to remember that our experiences and the memories we create are what truly matter

I guess what I'm trying to say
What I'm attempting to express is

Is will you stop a sec with me
Will you take a brief moment with me

I've missed so much so I won't let this slip away
I've let too many moments pass me by, but I won't allow that to continue happening

Whatever is gonna come now
Regardless of what happens in the future

Waiting at a cross line
At a crucial decision point or moment of uncertainty

I know it's the right time
I have a sense that this moment is the correct one

I'll make it all mine
I will take ownership of this moment and make the most of it
