| [00:01.65] |
I realize for something great I was created |
| [00:05.11] |
Music's my life and for a long time I have waited |
| [00:09.84] |
To break free, and live the life that I can see |
| [00:14.38] |
As my dream comes to life, just fighting to be me |
| [00:18.45] |
I believe in something greater then self |
| [00:20.30] |
I believe, there's more to livin' life then tryin' to get wealth |
| [00:22.56] |
More to life, then simply working hard to only get by |
| [00:24.85] |
More to death, then what we think when every one of us dies |
| [00:27.18] |
There's more around then we can see, not caught by the eye |
| [00:29.57] |
See, I might have started walking but I was born to fly |
| [00:31.77] |
World it might have clipped my wings, but that don't mean I won't try |
| [00:34.18] |
My feet, they may be on the ground, but my heads in the sky |
| [00:36.40] |
Gotta dream in my heart, and a gleam in my eye |
| [00:38.70] |
Dropping beats from my birth, till the day that I die |
| [00:41.02] |
And though life is hard, I always keep my face to the sky |
| [00:43.27] |
Looking up to heaven knowing everything will be fine |
| [00:45.68] |
I've made up my mind, my life is decided |
| [00:47.81] |
I write the words and in me music's simply provided |
| [00:49.92] |
I'd like to take the credit but I know that I'm guided |
| [00:52.30] |
Now every track blows up, like if two trains have collided |
| [00:54.42] |
You know, |
| [00:55.34] |
I wasn't simply created, to live a life under-rated |
| [00:57.04] |
To trip and fall in the system, to live a life full of hatred |
| [00:59.06] |
To blindly agree pay all your dues |
| [01:01.78] |
Man you better be careful, cause there's a whole lot to lose |
| [01:03.37] |
The world an evil place and man it's easy to use it |
| [01:05.98] |
That why half the time I stay low and I keep on my music |
| [01:08.15] |
But like everything else, I'm careful not to abuse it |
| [01:10.55] |
So that I'm not caught in the hype, give up my love, of worse, lose it, and now |
| [01:13.76] |
I realize for something great I was created |
| [01:18.25] |
Music's my life and for a long time I have waited |
| [01:22.87] |
To break free, and live the life that I can see |
| [01:27.32] |
As my dreams come to life, just fighting to be me |
| [01:31.49] |
It can be tough but I am always moving on |
| [01:36.27] |
And with each step you'll find me moving with my song |
| [01:41.00] |
And I know one day I'll open up my eyes |
| [01:45.60] |
And then my time will come, you'll see me start rise |
| [01:49.51] |
It's time to take music back |
| [01:50.75] |
Take it back to when the lyrics had some meaning |
| [01:53.21] |
Not continual demeaning |
| [01:54.08] |
Time to set it back on track |
| [01:55.45] |
But every time I try to rise again I find I'm up under an attack |
| [01:58.64] |
People crying out because they want something fresh |
| [02:00.94] |
But the music is dead, girls just show flesh |
| [02:03.45] |
I want something with meaning so I'll rise and protest |
| [02:05.59] |
I fed up living life with all the things I detest |
| [02:07.83] |
And now everybody's fake |
| [02:08.94] |
Almost no one real |
| [02:10.19] |
And I don't even care about a signed record deal |
| [02:12.15] |
Livin' lies so large man it's almost unreal |
| [02:14.43] |
I tell it like it is, it's just the way I feel |
| [02:16.96] |
And now young kids give it up, throw their lives away |
| [02:19.15] |
All because they listen to the stupid things we say |
| [02:21.37] |
But then they grow up, and they learn, and they pray |
| [02:23.81] |
And rehabilitation costs a billion a day |
| [02:25.83] |
I'm tired of hearing that I cannot be free |
| [02:28.08] |
I'm tired of hearing that I shouldn't even want to be me |
| [02:30.33] |
People still are having problems with the colour of my skin |
| [02:32.69] |
Hey but I'm OK, I take it on the chin |
| [02:34.93] |
Man this is life, some things are messed up |
| [02:37.31] |
My glass is half full, some don't even have a cup |
| [02:39.55] |
Every day I thank God, as I run through this race |
| [02:41.86] |
And do something with my life, before I leave this place, now |
| [02:45.18] |
I realize for something great I was created |
| [02:49.54] |
Music's my life and for a long time I have waited |
| [02:53.96] |
To break free, and live the life that I can see |
| [02:58.51] |
As my dreams come to life, just fighting to be me |
| [03:02.88] |
It can be tough but I am always moving on |
| [03:07.77] |
And with each step you'll find me moving with my song |
| [03:12.26] |
And I know one day I'll open up my eyes |
| [03:16.78] |
And then my time will come, you'll see me start rise |
| [03:21.28] |
Political correctness is the way of the day |
| [03:23.13] |
But I'm not afraid, so let me say |
| [03:25.53] |
The problem isn't us, the problem is you |
| [03:27.84] |
Stop blaming other people and look at the things you do |
| [03:30.08] |
Too bad I can't sing about happy days, birds and butterflies |
| [03:32.28] |
Cause every 10 seconds someone else in the world dies |
| [03:34.86] |
Sufferings everywhere but most of us just close our eyes |
| [03:37.22] |
And nothing changes anywhere, man, big surprise |
| [03:39.37] |
I've been fed up for way too long to avoid this rant |
| [03:41.73] |
It's not that I don't want to cool down, I simply can't |
| [03:44.02] |
The end is coming soon, but hardly anyone believes |
| [03:46.38] |
Cause half of us don't care, and the other half's deceived |
| [03:48.22] |
The key to life is love and that comes from up above |
| [03:50.54] |
Wake up sleeping world, cause push has now come to shove |
| [03:52.76] |
Not another generation of lazy, complacent whining |
| [03:55.09] |
Sitting back relaxing while the state of mans declining |
| [03:56.82] |
|
