Close your eyes and imagine
All the things that could happen
Wake up to a cup full of coffee
You want change you say,
and here you all are preaching it.
Preaching it to please. Please who?
Yourselves? Pu-lease.
Oh, oh, oh! I'll change lives.
The seas are calm.
My soul is free
The birds are singing let them sing.
In sweet harmony and song my soul is free.
The sun is shining.
Let it shine upon me.

As a little child I played in an open field of dreams
Not having a care in the worldBut as time went by a fence started to build a barrier around me
father’s spirit vanished when i was but a child
but long before my knees ached

before i washed for hours
and before clean was never clean enough
but i grew tired and weak

that we can do whatever we desire
Many people believe that time is moneySome add that money isn't everything thoughBut for me, time is simply trickyIt's the reason why I'm at a point so low
I want to arise like a phoenix from the ashes
Live for the moment and everything else can reside where the past is
You’ve been there, done that, it’s all said and done
