A crisis is brewing, I'll rise to the occasion,
I'm getting dehydrated, sapped of my passion.
Will I magically overcome, when the crisis becomes real,
Have I trained enough for this day? Were my priorities clear?
They say to live in the present, is what we human beings are meant,
The past and future will remain, but the moment will soon be spent.
I have instead found it wise, to prepare diligently for the future,
So when the crisis is finally upon you, you don't end up being a loser.
If you want to emerge stronger, better prepare well in advance,
Or you might not even survive, so don't goof up and take a chance.
It's in peacetime that you can prepare, not when surrounded in wartime,
To enjoy the present, and not sweat, is to bleed when fighting, and a crime.
I have a long time seen it coming, and now this crisis I've finally hit,
My training has prepared me, not to flail, but in the moment sit.
