Reach Anyway

In a room full of voices, minds on the grind, Big choices ahead, no clear path to find. Leaders and thinkers tryin' to map a way, But doubts keep risin', pushin' plans away. Pressure's on, options gettin' thin, Every idea soundin' weak as it spins. Then I speak up, toss a long-shot plan, A stretch too far, but maybe that's the stand. Sometimes you reach, even when it feels far, Sometimes you try, even when it's too hard. When hope's lookin' thin and success outta sight, You stretch out your arm, reach with all your might. Then a voice from the back says, "Why even try? What's the point in reachin' for the sky? That dream's outta touch, let's just let it go, No sense in stretchin' for what we don't know." But I keep calm, 'cause I see it clear, A memory sparkin', like wisdom here. I think of a story from not long ago, A stranger reachin' far, savin' a soul. Sometimes you reach, even when it feels far, Sometimes you try, even when it's too hard. When hope's lookin' thin and success outta sight, You stretch out your arm, reach with all your might. It was a busy street, crowded with sound, This stranger saw a child, fallin' down. Coulda kept walkin', said it's too late, But they stretched out an arm, didn't hesitate. They didn't know if their reach would connect, But that reach changed a life, showed respect. Sometimes you don't know what fate's got planned, But you reach anyway, with open hands. Sometimes you reach, even when it feels far, Sometimes you try, even when it's too hard. When hope's lookin' thin and success outta sight, You stretch out your arm, reach with all your might. So I look at the crew, eyes on each face, Sayin', "Maybe we fail, but it's worth the chase. Our people need answers, need a way to fight, So we reach out, trustin' in the light." Success or not, ain't all up to us, But takin' the shot, that's how we trust. When the path feels distant and the end seems blurred, You reach out anyway, empowered by the Word. Sometimes you reach, even when it feels far, Sometimes you try, even when it's too hard. When hope's lookin' thin and success outta sight, You stretch out your arm, reach with all your might. So next time you face a challenge too high, Remember that reach, just give it a try. There's strength in the effort, power in the fight, Sometimes all it takes is reachin' for light.
