Inside-out.
Posing the question.
So close to depression.
Ignoring my lessons.
Why aren't you chasing your dreams?

Can't get out of this bed.
Stuck laying here with endless dread.
Eyes shut; imagining myself dead.
What is it worth?

Sick of a brainwashed world; Can't change my mind.
Restless I fear till the end of time.
Truth's well hidden, it should be a crime.
Why can't you open your eyes?

Being a vessel for anger comes at a heavy price.
I cant help but roll the dice.
One shot to do it right, it won't happen twice.
What do you want to be in life?

A question asked so frequent.
No one seems to have a clear answer that's coherent.
Life isn't about making achievements.
How does one make a difference?

Word-of-mouth can be a powerful tool.
Oblivious, to what's really going on, they make us look like fools.
Self-absorb, no social interaction, glued to our phones as we drool.
What do you mean, Everything isn't as it seems?

It isn't about material items that's fact.
We die young with stress, cancers, and heart attacks.
Thinking a little pill could solve all our problems, It's a trap.
Haven't you been listening?

Millions spent on research to find a miracle cure.
There is nothing out there man-made that is guaranteed pure.
Many gullible minds so easy to lure.
What is society's guidelines?

Seek power and money like a ruthless zombie.
Never question, only serve the Queen.
For we are the fuel that moves this world like the worker bee.
Is there a path to happiness?

Stand up for your beliefs to hell if others think it's deranged.
You wanna see it then be the change.
Go against the norm, It will always be viewed as strange.

Your mind controls reality.
Soak up that positive energy.
Be happy.
You're the only one that has to live inside your head.
So why not change your perception instead?
