sit down kiddies i need you to listen, this is somethin i know you've been missing

Me an my boy gon tell it to you straight, if you can't take the truth you can walk away

listen to my words make sure you pay attention, take down some notes, class is in session

we living in this world where things don't go as planned, so if someone offers help, you better take that hand

cuz people aren't always so generous, most people are snakes, an their bite is venomous

they smile in your face, then kick you while you're down

you don't know what to say, are you writing this down?

live for yourself, you only have one life

it could end at anytime, it could be tonight....

And that’s not alright, Live, Ya gotta fight
Cuz we’re sayin the world ain’t right…no joke.
It sucks how you could not go for broke and still end up with nothin, gon’ head and wipe that yolk off your face cuz first place just escaped you again
Even I gotta ask, are you ever gonna win?
My optimism outshines even the greatest of minds
Their logic hypnotic but wrong, sometimes smart is blind
Sometimes with smart you’ll find the future lookin real bleak
So dark, saps your energy, makes you real weak
Don’t get me wrong though I’m not sayin don’t think
Just breathe…Do it next time you blink
Everything goes black when you close your eyes
Keep em there
I bet you will see a light
Dark is cool, it gives light a place to be
Keep em there
Ya light needs a place to see
Man once you let light be the power is insane
Strong enough I promise it overloads the brain
You’re shut down, can’t move, now that’s a pain
Allow us to reboot you.
State your name
State your race, case, and base for existin at all
State if you enjoy things like hittin the mall
State how good it makes you feel should you receive a call acknowledging congratulations cuz you knew how to ball
State ya height, we don’t care whether short or tall
State what you would do if you ever should fall
Suicide?
But then you’re no longer alive
We said live, I’ll kick your ass if you somehow die
Somebody cares somewhere, I know its true
Please don’t get depressed if I’m unable to tell who
My optimism is on blast, check me out
I make my own logic so I hold no doubt
There are too many f’ing people on this blasted Earth
And yeah, trusting people can get you hurt
And yeah, they really will kick you in dirt
But hey, there’s always one who can somehow usurp
Your heart body and mind completely take over
Make everyday lucky like a four-leaf clover
They made you sober, or that’s the hope
Who knows? Maybe they got you caught up in dope
Oh well, it doesn’t matter cuz at least now ya happy
But I’m sorry I wasn’t trying to get all sappy
The points we’re making have to be quite clear
I’m sayin, don’t die until you hold someone dear
Value them, be satisfied knowing they’re near
Be dumb. Be too stupid to feel that fear
The one present as you try to keep people away
The one present as you don’t explain why you don’t stay
The present as you went and lost the key to your heart
The same fear that’s the reason your emotions won’t start
Caring about someone and knowing they care too? It’s just…You have to feel it.
It’s amazingness dude.
I had to make one up cuz there are really no words
I just pray that either part of our message was heard
Be free like a bird and always live your life now Mark’s right, God’s tricky, it could end tonight
One. More. Thing.
Let me say it before you take flight
One. More. Thing.
Believe us cuz we’ve been there alright?
