There is a time in a person's life when that internal clock will ring when a higher force will wake us from our slumber with a sting having been given individual trials, we hope we'll do our best but we are insensitive, overcome with laziness, a desire for rest The little things in life, how so often we take them for granted quickly losing touch with reality, and becoming disenchanted thinking we can forge relationships, with the blinking of an eye failing to feel the hurt we cause others, with our final good-bye We, as human beings, must first come to acknowledge the truth the problems we all hide in our closet, they started in our youth but the error of our thinking, is clear and can only be addressed when we're willing to accept the fact, that this life is only a test Attempts at self denial are truly futile, because you remain unchanged accomplishing nothing, only from yourself will you become estranged an endless light of healing must be released, to that location unknown thereby removing that which blocks our thinking, our heart of stone Your mind is your cage, only if you desire, you can set yourself free don't believe in the lies you're told, you can be what you want to be if you never give up, you alone will be able to preserve the true way by choosing your destiny, no one else will, because this is your day Liberate yourself from the enslavement, transitory passions of the day either stand up to the pressures, or you'll just find yourself blown away you must trust your heart as it knows the truth, and it alone will succeed choosing the only real path, that path from where the light shall proceed

A Time to Set Yourself Free
There is a time in a person's life when that internal clock will ring when a higher force will wake us from our slumber with a sting having been given individual trials, we hope we'll do our best but we are insensitive, overcome with laziness, a desire for rest The little things in life, how so often we take them for granted quickly losing touch with reality, and becoming disenchanted thinking we can forge relationships, with the blinking of an eye failing to feel the hurt we cause others, with our final good-bye We, as human beings, must first come to acknowledge the truth the problems we all hide in our closet, they started in our youth but the error of our thinking, is clear and can only be addressed when we're willing to accept the fact, that this life is only a test Attempts at self denial are truly futile, because you remain unchanged accomplishing nothing, only from yourself will you become estranged an endless light of healing must be released, to that location unknown thereby removing that which blocks our thinking, our heart of stone Your mind is your cage, only if you desire, you can set yourself free don't believe in the lies you're told, you can be what you want to be if you never give up, you alone will be able to preserve the true way by choosing your destiny, no one else will, because this is your day Liberate yourself from the enslavement, transitory passions of the day either stand up to the pressures, or you'll just find yourself blown away you must trust your heart as it knows the truth, and it alone will succeed choosing the only real path, that path from where the light shall proceed
