You look for ways to make the world a better place
Join activist groups thinking that will make a change
Talking about starting a revolution for future generations
And yet you miss the simple pleasures in life
You let life pass you by.
The moments that give you joy and peace are tossed to the side
How ironic that you seek freedom and yet you cage yourself in
Afraid to love and let her in
Afraid to be the person you are when you are with her
You say that you’re messed up, I’ve got some news for you, all of us are
But we don’t blame life for the decisions we make and we don’t cower and hide when opportunities arise
You think you’re living by rejecting love
But you’re so far in over your head there is no room for the growth or change
You speak of living life to the fullest, yet you’re stuck behind bars
People look at you and think you’re so tall, flying above it all
But when I look at you I realize you’re an original trying to be a copy
I watched and was amazed at how you made people feel
It felt real, it felt good, it felt like a win
In this life a win can take you on so many highs
But careful when flying and enjoying the ride
Because it might be a high that you experience but you’re actually going down
Take the blue pill, experience the thrill
Take the red one and be one of masses that go through life without ever knowing how to awaken and see the strife
Take a chance and risk tomorrow
Take a chance it might make you lose all the sorrow
Whatever you do, make the right choice for you, because YOU are all you’ll ever have
And YOU are all the world needs to change
It starts by taking it one step at a time and realizing that growth is the answer.
