This time don't make it sound this sad
The situation isn't actually all this bad
Too much drama won't do no good I have been told
But did you ever feel like you're heart's been sold
'Cause if you haven't ever been there
Don't bother judging what defines unfair
And have you ever felt like your soul's been taken away
Did you ever feel like you don't wanna' see another day
Mostly it's people like you telling me not go overboard
Except, a long time ago I made my piece with the lord
So please forget about fixing me
For the things you simply cannot see
The thought of spending time by yourself is nowhere near
You're too much of cowards to actually let in the fear
If you did, instantly you'd get off your horse
Enlightment, the name of this beautiful force
Shouldn't have to make use of another letter
Really painfully obvious that no one is better
We're all only humans in the end
So what's your reason to offend
Your own brothers and sisters you kill
Truly your very blood you're willing to spill
'Just the way it is', so tired of hearing this
Clearly between the lines there's something you miss
Speed up the process and start making amends
Change the world with your own two hands
