lyrics

I ain’t gonna lie

The sun shining down on me, it feels alright

It’s been a long night

The darkness has followed us to broad daylight

and it’s hard to discern

but can’t you see the boomerang is coming on back around again?

And don’t you get burned

What you give is what you get, and that is always how it’s been. 



And I can feel it

I feel the sun shining down

Warming up all our skin, I think it’s worth it for now

And the light, is just breaking through

Never any obligation to explain it to you

It’s alright, we’ve got ever-lasting life

Peaking over the edge and taking a leap makes us alive

So I think you’re alright



Remember the pills that they’ve been selling us have been making us sick

But the poison provides a sense of comfort that keeps us addicted

And it makes it so damn easy to forget

But now we’re on the verge of waking up from a dream

you take a look around you, you’ll see what I mean.



We can make this better



Don’t you know it’s time to let it all go

Time to really learn how to take things slow

keeping my head upon my shoulders turns into a big chore

And I know it’s just the way things go

You find a little faith, you find a little hope

Plant it in the garden of your mind and your soul

Nurture and water it, making sure that it grows

And in the end you reap the harvest you sow

The harvest you sow



And I can feel it

It’s in the air that we breathe

The way that we’ve been living ain’t the way it ought to be

Dollar signs in the eyes of representatives and senators

They’re piling up their mountain of greed

But they’re desperate to keep the fighting between you and me

With their corporate media propaganda machine

They’re hoping you never realize that it ain’t what it seems

Or that their way is not the way it has to be

No their way is not the way that it has to be



Remember the pills that they’ve been selling us have been making us sick

But the poison provides a sense of comfort that keeps us addicted

And it makes it so damn easy to forget

But now we’re on the verge of waking up from a dream
Take a look around you, you’ll see what I mean.

The signs are everywhere, they’re inside you and me

Together, we can manifest reality



We can make this better
