F#$K Do We Know

you keep sayin
you keep sayin
that change is all you really want but
you're unwilling
you're unwilling
to see how you get in the way of
what you don't know
what you don't know
Imagine that, there's something you don't
it's so foreign
it's so foreign
like another universe forming inside this one
i know you're trying
you're trying
to keep ahold of the stories that make sense
but maybe
just maybe
they're the very stories that keep you fenced in
unable to see
unable to see
that you didn't choose these beliefs
but you don't question
don't question
where they came from and what they mean oh..
HAve you asked
you haven't asked
you haven't got to the part that means anything
you're projecting
you're protecting
that fragile sense of self you hold onto
it's only natural
it's so natural
to wanna be done with all this work
But it's beginning
it's the beginning
shedding the false idea that you can know
all of it
or any of it
to understand why our elders did what they
I believe
I have to believe
that they did their best from their hearts and souls
it's so foolish
so foolish
to think you could have done it or said it better
and you disconnect
disconnect
from Understanding
But maybe, that's what you want in the end
to have it all your way and never mend
But then again, maybe you don't see
that this way you'll never be free
You wanna be be free
you wanna be free
But you think you think it's something you're born with
With no duty
no effort
and you keep trying to avoid this mess we're in
that we're flawed
we got flaws
an its our duty to correctly identify
what holds us back
holds back
is something only ourselves can know
So don't deny
don't deny
all the information that you can't have yet
it's your blindspot
your blindspot
thinking that you can know anybody else
outside yourself
outside yourself
is none of your concern or ability to learn
So stop pretending
and stop pointing
and telling everyone what they need to change but..
But maybe, that's what you want in the end
to have it all your way and never mend
But then again, maybe you don't see
that this way you'll never be free
Be free

For Real

I can tell that it’s a lie
Does it make you feel good
No matter what I say
You’re gonna act like you would
Let me ask you a question
Can you answer me for real
Is this image your reaction
To avoid what you feel
All the pain you push around
Keeps on bringing me down
I wonder if you really know
Or if you wanna grow
So let it all hang down
And see what it reveals
And when you touch the ground
And see yourself For Real
Can you see what you’re doing
Can you see the casualties
Or worse yet is you’re enjoying
that’s your reality
Maybe this is an affliction
You act out of compulsion
Not even a real person
Only emptiness and desperation
So let it all hang down
And see what it reveals
And when you touch the ground
And see yourself For Real
I can tell that it’s a lie
Does it make you feel good
Aint no matter what I say
you’re gonna act like you would
and it comes fromhate hate hate hate......
I can see that it's a lie
I can see it in your eyes
I can see there's only one way now
So let it all hang down
And see what it reveals
And when you touch the ground
And see yourself For Real
So let it all hang down
And see what it reveals
And when you touch the ground
And see yourself For Real
So let it all hang down
And see what it reveals
And when you finally touch the ground
And finally heal
And finally heal
And See Yourself For Real

High On Your Soapboxx

See you out at night
Out on the town
Just pretending that you're blending in
but I know what you did
You say rip em down
I know I heard you say
All you want is Justice
no matter what it pays
I say slow your role
come on know your place
I never hear both sides
so I know it can't be true to case
How can you sleep at night
When you act this way
I hope you're tucked in tight
to keep your conscious at bay
When You're Up On Your High Horse
When You're Out Of Touch And Judging Way Too Much
It makes Me Wonder What Will Happen When You Stumble
When You're up SO High You're Bound to Tumble
It don't matter if someone reputation gets burned to the ground
It don't matter about what you say to get someone else's mind turned around
People take their lives, to the lies that you say
And you call even when people end up dead
You keep running your mouth
When nothing's changed at all
I'd have thought that direct communication
would be that call
You're up high and high
You never made a mistake
I guess when you lead without sin makes you the voice of reason ahh
When You're Up On Your High Horse
When You're Out Of Touch And Judging Way Too Much
It makes Me Wonder What Will Happen When You Stumble
When You're up SO High You're Bound to Tumble
You're up SO HIGH...
Up on your Soapbox
You keep preaching hard times, hard lies
When I look at you, it's obvious you never a day of suffering
I hope and pray that day comes
Then you'll realize what it means to be human
Too man, and realize that you're part of the problem of alienating the real victims
You're like a baby
Crawling around, rolling around, trying to convince other people about this cruel cruel world
Why don't you come from integrity
Why don't you come from gratitude
Truth in your words
Why don't you stop spreading you little shit
If you ever had a hard day
You'd crumple and die
That why I know your words don't mean shit
You goddamn hypocrite, ya
I keep watching all day long
You're just preaching on
You ain't had a hard day in your life
I keep watching all day long
You're just preaching on
Straight from the silver spoon
I keep watching all day long
You're just preaching on
You keep saying how hard it is even though you have it all
I keep watching all day long
You're just preaching on
And I wanna be there when you Fall
