1. Time To Understand
People, asking me why
Cause I use these values as my guide.
A view that's straight, a focused mind
I just want to get the most from life!
It's time.
TIME TO UNDERSTAND!
Values degrading and slipping away
Words to live by not just words to say!
You're using up people and
say your mind is clear
Or bringing to shows violence and fear,
don't you get it!
TIME TO UNDERSTAND!
Not trying to save the world,
just trying to do our part.
Some take this way too far, some not far enough.
Can we see, all this edge on life can be!
It's time to UNDERSTAND!
2. Get Wise
Out on the street I come face to face
With what little concern we have for the others, in this human race.
You can choose the view you want to see but
It's harder to care than to live in ampathy!
JUST GET WISE!
When it's ten years later and we've had our turn
Will our foundation crack or will it stand firm.
Poverty, hunger, addiction and disease.
I want to lend a hand to those I need.
I hear the critics but I know these thoughts are real
And I know part of you feels the way i feel!
I'll open my eyes and just get wise.
And live my life so that suffering may cease.
I'll live my life so one may walk in peace!
3. Peace
What is peace? You tell me you know.
When so quickly it comes and so quickly it goes.
It's the absence of struggle not some hippy clich�.
And it's got real worth no matter what people say.
In figureheads we won't find. Until we first find it in our own lives!
Peace! LIVE IN PEACE!
Turn on the news and see there is a need.
Fightin, without humanity.
And even the strongest person with concrete
beliefs will need relief.
They will one day cry for peace.
Peace! LIVE IN PEACE!
I'm tired, still I'm trying to find real peace inside myself.
It's not a world away.
We face it everyday.
I'm praying for peace. In everyone!
It's time to give it up.
I'm sick of fighting people that i love so much.
Come together it really matters.
Find the peace inside don't let the pieces scatter
4. No Way To Live
It's a trap sometimes I can't escape.
We all need support when we've lost our way.
It's faith, knowing you'll be there.
And the difference you make with your heart and hands.
Taking and taking.
When you have such a chance to give
That's just no way to live!
So much potential for influence.
But a lack of those who really care.
Weighted down? Try standing up!
It's a burden that we can bare.
Taking and taking.
When you have such a chance to give.
That's just no way to live!
Here's a story about a guy I knew.
He had now faith in himself, so how could he be true?
In times of trouble I hoped that he could see all the strength he had inside, all that he could be.
BUT he was one of those people whose loyalties are few.
He'll sit back laughing cause it's so much easier to do.
He's the one left feeling lonely inside and I'm hoping and praying he's gonna realize.
You can't TRULY GIVE UNTIL YOU LIVE!
5. Learning
I FEEL IT in my veins, an urge to change.
Not to stay the same.
I know my faults and where I've been.
Facing my failures so I won't again.
I've done the best with what I've had
And I'll keep regrets from fucking up my head.
LEARN from our mistakes before it's too late.
There were times when we stuck like glue.
But we sat back and watched as the distance grew.
Do we care? Did we lose sight?
Will we learn, will we do what's right?
LEARN from our mistace before it's too late.
I FEEL IT in my veins, an urge to change.
Not to stay the same
6. What We Know
We're just kids trying to do our best
Do what's right for us, despite what's good for all the rest.
It's not what we wear on our hands or on our feet.
It's the good we're trying to do. The goals we set
that we're trying to meet.
This is WHAT WE KNOW!
True colors will always show WHAT WE KNOW!
Not afraid to say what's in my heart
even if you put it down or tear it apart.
We're standing on a solid foundation
built on caring, honesty, the edge and dedication.
This is WHAT WE KNOW!
True colors will alway show WHAT WE KNOW!
We'll stand alone if that's the way it's got to be.
We could stand together if only you could see.
We're not trying to lead but we won't be led.
Just putting words and music to what's in our hearts, in our heads!
This is WHAT WE KNOW!
True colors will alway show WHAT WE KNOW!
7. Pursuit Of Happiness
Searching for our life's goals
and something to hold and make us feel whole.
Dissatisfaction as soon as we aquire
and we're blinded by what it is we desire.
In pursuit of HAPPINESS!
Living life in ignorance there's no bliss.
Stop, look and contemplate.
Is this cycle all are there is? Is this our fate?
Wether it's money, clothes, drugs or booze.
When we quest for what's impermanent, we're gonna lose.
In pursuit of HAPPINESS!
Living life in ignorance there's no bliss.
Listen, and hear me now.
This pursuit of happiness will bring us DOWN!
To our knees.
There is nothing wrong with material taste.
Just see it's true worth and understanding it's place.
This cycle we're in begins again and it's up to each of us to decide where it ends
8. As It Is
Yes! I still believe.
But what do these words have to do with me
Are we all mute, can’t we speak and express the ideas we really think?
I want your voice out of my head; I can’t believe the words you said.
All this great music with no message, what is the point?
Others may hold back, but I will speak my mind AS IT IS!
The words I heard inspired me to look at myself and the world around me.
I know what I believe I know what I think, I don’t want this “scene” but I won’t watch it sink. If we
can help each other believe that life is worth living that that is enough for me.
A community that can do so much more than shout out slogans and hit the dance floor.
Others may hold back, but I will speak my mind AS IT IS!
I have faith in the words we said but its useless man if we don’t use our heads.
Screaming at the top of my lungs, you think the core is ending but it’s just begun.
So many people looking for green curse and scream and just use the scene.
You can hurt its name and you can win, but you’ll get out what you put in!
Others may hold back, but I will speak my mind AS IT IS!
9. Face The Pain
I've got people to stand with me but I've got to
bare this on my own.
Feeling fear has brought me to my knees.
Do I have the strength I truly need?
Face the pain.
Being angry won't get me far if what I planned isn't how things are.
Facing life I'll take the risk of finding out how life really is.
Face the pain.
We can't keep doing what we've always done!
FACE THE PAIN!
When the pain starts we can't turn and run.
FACE THE PAIN!
If you think you're stuck, stop and look again.
FACE THE PAIN and the healing can begin
10. Take Control
It's an instinct in my brain
To live a balanced life but everyday it's so hard to maintain.
Things in life seem to lose their meaning
And lost, alone, and out of control is how I'm feeling.
TAKE CONTROL!
Understand your life is in your hands,
TAKE CONTROL!
You know it's the way, the only way to live,
But when you're playing foolish games.
We can't see life for what it really is.
I've got one chance to do all I can,
With discipline and insight I've got a plan
TAKE CONTROL!
Understand your life is in your hands,
TAKE CONTROL!
I've personalized and I've dramatized my life
But there no true value lies.
Stop reacting and take one step ahead.
Have pride in the life you've led
11. No Good Reason
No good reason!
Talking your shit, playing your games.
You try to tell me who is righteous and tell me
who is lame.
So easy to point fingers, to criticize.
But while everyone is laughing the spirit dies!
There is no good reason!
NO GOOD REASON!
Stand for your cause, look at the energy spent
You say it's reals but does it make you content
Cause friends are divided it doesn't seem right
And you're standing your ground but not gaining insight!
There is no good reason!
NO GOOD REASON!
JUST MAKE IT WORK!
JUST - MAKE - IT WORK!
We won't alway see eye to eye,
But we can see the good in each other to learn to compromise.
You and I make it work!
We can make it work!
12. A New Reality
When we started, it was so simple then.
Honest motivation.
We were the best friends.
It's sad that some, choose not to stick around.
But we've paid for our mistakes and you can't keep us down!
IT'S A NEW REALITY!
Learning and growing, all we've shared and understood.
It's made us better than we were before with friendship and brotherhood.
Now I see, a hope in each new face.
Old friends still endure.
We've got what it takes.
Not afraid to care, we all do our part.
These days have changed my head
and they've opened up my heart!
IT'S A NEW REALITY!
Learning and growing, all we've shared and understood.
It's made us better than we were before with friendship and brotherhood.
It's a new reality!
