Dec 2012
Listen
They say that home is where the heart is
but I got high and lost my key
so instead I opened up my mind
and let my heart free
The things I hadn't seen
my eyes found clear vision
my mind became clay
and I shaped some new opinions
Ideas on winning mean losers are required
and losers are never admired
in war they simply find fires
turn to smoke inside pyres
But I know we all lose
cause we have so much to gain
can't grab it all and that's a shame
get what we can and maintain
The world turns slow
but we track its daily progress
the laws change quick
pushed through by men in congress
then these laws change the world
while it's trying to keep pace
and we try to move faster
must be why its "the human race"
The whole world smokes
and then we all inhale the fumes
the trees **** in the evil
and breathe out air in their blooms
We're told to grow up
and then cherish our youth
we're told stick to the facts
and then slip on the truth
Some of us explore the world
while others stay at home
some will push the levels of comfort
while others keep safety zones
I wish to see it all because
I've been told seeing is knowing
my skull stays the same size
but my mind will keep growing
So now I see the world as my home
and my heart is in the planet
I'll spread my love to everyone
even if they don't understand it
and candidly share my views
to people whose views are missin
but I think the whole world is like this
so I guess my message is listen.
