I'd hand it to time
|
If I knew where the time had gone
|
The connoisseurs were wrong
|
And so was everyone else
|
|
I know what they're saying
|
'Cause that's all they talk about
|
Just need to figure out
|
Some shit for myself
|
|
And just because it's obvious
|
Doesn't mean it's even true
|
Heard it all and I believe that we deserve another
|
Point of view
|
|
We can make it if we try
|
And if we don't, it's gonna still be alright
|
'Cause our minds are still alive
|
And we can decide what's right
|
|
Make up your mind
|
Make up your own mythology
|
Afraid of finding me
|
And of defining you
|
|
Take what you want
|
But you won't want it where you're at
|
I know this for a fact
|
Just because it's so true
|
|
The first place my mind goes
|
Is where I never want it to
|
Like where it hurts the most of all
|
The stupid shit I say and do
|
|
We can make it if we try
|
And if we don't, it's gonna still be alright
|
'Cause our minds are still alive
|
And we can decide what's right
|
|
Telling me thousands of times what's next to want
|
Just doing their job but you know that's a dirty job
|
Can't stand this game, still we're bullied to play along
|
When bullies grow up, they get meaner, yeah, they really get it down
|
|
They think that they get it
|
But they always get it wrong
|
They'll play your favorite song
|
Just to sell shit to you
|
|
I've heard that they'll sell anything
|
And I think they might
|
I think Bill Hicks was right
|
About what they should do
|
|
And just because you love something doesn't mean it's yours to buy
|
Been selling it so long that no one even knows the reason why
|
You've been messing with our minds
|
Getting rich wasting our time
|
