In these times some gifts are vindictive
But creativity will never be submissive
Built up strength and a baby was born
She wore her mama's face and she carried it all her own
Tools of abuse beat schools of thought
Systematic indifference to the joy that you've brought
A crown of thorns, a broken down thrown
Picked up all the pieces, built something of her own
She says life's too hard for these everyday martyrs
I think I'm gonna cry
From joy or sorrow I can't quite decide
Life's easy if you don't ask why
Dance on the canvas, just make your message clear
Interpret the permanence of ever changing tears
We weep and we grow
We reap what we've sown
Diggin' deep between the lines to find a meaning all our own
Some mysteries are better left undetected
Stolen histories never resurrected
When all that dirt turns us into stone
The statues that are carved won't resemble us at all
She says life's too long, it keeps draggin' on
I'm wondering when I'm gonna die
But life's too short and I ain't got the time
To think about a thing like time
So plant a seed and let's see what springs up there
No chance in Hell but we've gotta start somewhere
Try to find a place we can call our home
That feeling starts inside, and we carry it all our own
Small victories and setbacks all the same
Where the flashin' lights direct you just head the other way
You never asked to be born but you were, and you face it all alone
But a helpin' hand with a heavy heart, you won't have to carry it all your own
She says life's all shit and you just can't win
No matter how hard you try
But it keeps me amused
I learn more when I lose
So keep that look in your eye
Keep that fire alive
Keep that spark inside
Look up to the sky
