[Intro] "Hey. Yeah, you. I know you've been waiting for the right time." [Verse 1] You've got a note in your phone from two thousand and nine, Three words and a dream and a half-finished line. You've told yourself: when I'm ready, when the fear gets light. You've been training for a starting gun that nobody's gonna fire but you. [Pre-Chorus] Every person who ever did the thing Was exactly as terrified as you. The only difference, Is they did it terrified too. [Chorus] DO THE THING. Do the thing you've always wanted to do, Not tomorrow, not when you're richer or new. Now. Right now. This exact, imperfect now. YO-de-lAY-ee-OOOO-hee-lAY-ee-OOO!! "That's what it feels like." Nobody's coming to give you permission. It was always yours. Do the thing. Now. [Verse 2] I know what it cost you to keep that dream alive. "I'll do it later." The most expensive steal. What if later was a door that only swings one way? Not the finished version. This one. The one reading this right now. That feeling IS the call. [Pre-Chorus] Make sure when fear and want stand toe to toe, Make sure it's not the want. [Chorus] DO THE THING. Your thing. Not the perfect thing. The true thing. Now. This beautiful, terrifying now. Yo-de-lAY-hee-OOO-de-lAY-ee-OOOO-lAY! "That's what's on the other side." Nobody's coming. It was always yours. Do the thing. Now. [Bridge] You know what you are? You are the proof that whatever made this world decided to try something it had never tried before. Only you can do it the way you would do it. If you don't... ...it just doesn't exist. THE WORLD IS TIRED OF THINGS NOT EXISTING! YO-de-lAY-ee-OOOO, hee-lAY-ee-OOOO, de-lAY-EE-OOOOOOO!! "Now you know what to do." [Final Chorus] DO THE THING. DO YOUR THING. The life that's been living in the waiting room of you. Yo-de-lAY-ee-OOO! (now!) Hee-lAY-ee-OOO! (now!) DE-lAY-EE-OOOOOO!! NOW!! Imperfect, terrified, blazing, alive. DO. THE. THING. [Outro] yo-de-lay... ee... ooo... "I'll see you on the other side. Go."
