Ahead From Behind

I am so far behind
In all that I do
I cannot see a thing
In the present, it’s true

I live in the past
With historical greats
I hear them disagree
In lengthy debates

I’m swimming upstream
Trying to reach now
I know the direction
But I don’t know how

Yet, Life is a circle
So grateful am I it is
I can be behind enough
To be ahead of current biz

That’s it, I have it
I figured it out
So far behind I am now ahead
There is no doubt

But don’t worry about it
There’s no need to fret
Soon I’ll be behind again
On that you can bet
