Everything you see is a mystery To understand what no one knows Is to transform what is divinity Feel it like it's in me Heart races, breathe in, breathe out Touch the clouds, can’t see now Living is easy with eyes closed some say See the world, feel the world As a whole like a blind girl Whether you believe what you see Or see what you believe It's not evidence Perception's more relevant So carry on, eyes closed, no peaking This blind world is beautiful But everything's deceiving I've seen all types of weather From sunshine to thunder When I die give my eyes to Stevie Wonder Send them in a box Signed, sealed and delivered It's the least I can do I've learned so much from the river Like you reap what you sow Glitter is not gold The young become old And everyone dies alone High above the ocean sea It's just you and me Here the world seems so peaceful As far as the eye can see But it's not though Feels like a warzone Soldiers left all alone Fighting just to get back home Now what do you see in your mirror A victim of the times Or a cold blooded killer The haze is starting to clear up Moving slow like syrup I can see the fate of man Standing tall with his head in the sand Saying where did we go wrong Men and kings Waiting for God's song With our own songs to sing With reoccurring dreams All written for one queen Man is doomed If he thinks he can find the end suffering It's so simple It's what we love that makes us so crippled It's so simple It's what we love that makes us

So why are we praying to the first cause Prison bars Do you know the difference between God and man's law He's a dead beat dad to humanity I was raised by gravity My Mother Nature's love inhabits me So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail Left like an orphan but I still feel important And I've got proof that there's no such thing as truth See it's a relative principal Same window different visual Perception's non fictional But true stories are invincible We all see differently And have different definitions for the word free We all see differently And have different definitions fo the word free That's not me Born into slavery You can't choose Born into slavery without a clue Born into slavery and robbed of youth Before you can obtain anything of value you've got so much more to lose Manifest your destiny Then you'll see Dreaming big's the recipe to rest and peace Free your soul and let it be Find your muse and then you'll see You are him and he is me And try to kill time before time kills me So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail So who am I to tell what's real I'm just a minor detail...

The stars in the sky The twinkle in your eyes Your hand that touched mine when the fire subsides The air that we share The signs that we care The truths and the dares and all the clothes that you wear The dirt and the soil Best friends that stay loyal Bloodlines that are royal And watched pots that boil The dreams in your mind The ones you can't rewind Men who measure time and all those who fall in line The treasures and the crimes The realest of the rhymes All the things you find and the ones you leave behind Everything you know Snails that move slow Your true feelings that show and everything that grows The rivers and the streams The peasants and the kings Caged birds that sing and reoccurring dreams The Moon and the Sun The boring and the fun The faithless and the nun and all the bullets in your gun Everything is one... Unsuspecting weather Birds of the same feather Girls that are clever, they never say never The winners of the prize The tellers of the lies The riders of the ride and all things that you despise The rulers of the world Collectors of the pearls Hurricane swirls making dancers twirl The ranks of all men All their swords and pens The places they have been and all the ones they call friends Everything is one... The winters that are cold Statements that are bold The young and the old And all the stories that are told The good and the evil The soldiers and the peaceful Injections that are lethal and the unsuspecting upheaval The lies and the truth The bright and eager youth The voters in the booth and everyone who knows you The house were you grew up The lines that you cut The faces in the mud and everything you've ever loved Everything is one...

The clock hit 9:30 That's when I'd start to worry About all the things that I see when I sleep So I close my eyes and just breathe and try to see peace Then the picture panned out That's when the monsters came out Haunted by the stories of the evil They try to kill the peaceful Trying to fit a dollar sign into a keyhole The strong somehow become feeble We are all one people Now I see that opposites they're equal When I went to bed I'd get lost in my head Stuck in a dream world Trying to find a dream girl But now I realize that the world is mine And heaven and hell are only states of mind

It's obvious to me that we're destructive We're part of nature, not above it Hate it or love it We're trying to survive by taking innocent lives But see the war is in your mind and you ignore it all the time Praying on your own kind Walking a fine line between justice and the crime Trapped in time It's a ploy Before we create we must destroy Kill strangers for toys that we can't share Life mimics art The result is warfare It's obvious to Beatles and me We need to let it be It's funny how friends become enemies So forget what you know Don't let your feelings show In this never-ending loop the casualty is truth So it seems nothing is changing The illusion keeps fading And it's only getting clearer we're waging war against a mirror Voicing our opinions with guns Starting fires for fun to watch it burn like the Sun What is done is done It's obvious to me that we are hopeless Repeating history because we're living in the moment The evidence has shown life is violent and violence is life It doesn't matter if we teach our kids to fight It's and inherent trait that we initiate Some call it fate but we're really walking a straight line through a figure eight Fighting against your own kin Preaching peace while you sin It's truly un-American It's a war you'll never win Flags don't unite us They divide us Make your neighbors look like strangers Though they're right beside us Sacrificing what's not yours Way off coarse The enemy's breached our shores Their ideals will be forced That's why the rich send the poor to war It's obvious to me that we are fucked We're stuck in a rut Bottoms up Basically I've had enough It's obvious to me there's no such thing as destiny We are free to choose what is truth Win or lose, it's up to you Seven moves ahead the King's last words are said With nowhere to go his days are at an end White flag in his hand He remembers that he's a man Though he should've known all along that he'd die just like the pawns So the pattern keeps repeating There has to be a meaning Predictable like the seasons There has to be a reason why we choose to play this game When the outcome's always the same No one is to blame There's no love without pain No pride without shame Everything must change The pieces get rearranged We're all deranged Killing everything but time The punishment is the crime Everyone walks the line The only gift is time Flags don't unite us They divide us Make your neighbors look like strangers Though they're right beside us Sacrificing what's not yours Way off coarse The enemy's breached our shores Their ideals will be forced That's why the rich send the poor to war It's obvious to me that we are fucked We're stuck in a rut Bottoms up Basically I've had enough It's obvious to me there's no such thing as destiny We are free to choose what is truth Win or lose, it's up to you It's obvious to me that we are pawns Mysteriously controlled to protect the kings lawn So absurd Rest assured, there's nowhere to go but forward I don't know the plans This war is out of my hands All I know is where I stand It's obvious to me that we're destructive We're part of nature, not above it Hate it or love it We're trying to survive by taking innocent lives But see the war is in your mind and you ignore it all the time Praying on your own kind Walking a fine line between justice and the crime Trapped in time It's a ploy Before we create we must destroy Kill strangers for toys that we can't share Life mimics art The result is warfare It's obvious to me that we are stuck Face to face with the enemy Time is almost up Feel the rush as the whole world shakes Counting on blind faith High stakes The game always ends with Checkmate

I got 20/20 vision I see all around me Some days are clear But some days are cloudy Without me would things go on I'll believe it when I see it Perception is a con Illusions mask the truth It's up to you if the sky is blue You're heart's a jewel but your mind's a fool So trust no one when it's all said and done Especially the man hiding the smoking gun I got 20/20 vision I see all around me Some days are clear But some days are cloudy When I leave I forget to say goodbye The things you never find are the ones you leave behind The chorus is a lie In space and time We seek to find what's in our mind We can't define or explain reality Duality Two of everything is a formality Dreams are not a fallacy I got 20/20 vision I see all around me Some days are clear But some days are cloudy What I see is upside down My brain flips it around Now my feet are on the ground My third eye sees the truth Aloof from you There is no proof that one and two are without a clue But somehow my mind sees through And my heart is the glue that keeps my soul in tune I got 20/20 vision I see all around me Some days are clear But some days are cloudy Finally my mind is at peace The only thing I need is a heart that's empty I'm giving up on love It's all too much I like the touch but it all boils down to lust In luck Nothing is ever enough You'll see it when you believe it And you'll know it when you feel it
