The obstacle is recognized and the necessity of dealing with it is accepted. The truth of the matter is finally being faced...

Dam

The feeling is getting stronger / I’m aware of a dam
Building internally / This is not who I am
Conflicting directions / Identity crisis
Time has come to make a choice
Quiet the fearful voice

This current is pushing me / To play for the wrong team
I don’t see how this course / Is leading to my dream
Water which has no outlet / Will die of stagnation
This is all making me daft
I am in the wrong craft

Too many lives at once / I need some time for me
Foreshadowed Schizoid Man / 21st century
Self-serving purposes / And matter over mind
This boat is sinking fast
The delusion can’t last

Streaming the superficial / Life without an essence
Seeing through to the bottom / I can’t find any sense
There’s a need for something deeper / That is left unaddressed
Many questions, one answer
Myself I must enter
