I feel like in this world, there's so many things to be depressed about
And as I'm looking into the world, a sunset, a beautiful scenery, no worries or doubts
There's still layers behind a beautiful picture
Even when it's our eyes that are the lens and the blinks that are the shutters
A billion and two words for the things we are seeing
A billion and two ways we as the people
Are the villains
Whether it's your story or theirs, it's the perspective that creates the opinion that
Leads to division
Because someone is starving, there's someone dying from a disease
They still can't figure it out
There's kids hurting without understanding why
This is the life the Bible talked about
They're not on the same side as I am because I have food on the table
Not listening to bombs going off
Not listening to shots being let off
Is this what it feels like to be in a state of understanding
Realizing that both came from the same being
Maybe the left hand and the right hand won't hold hands and accept a union
You take one and I take one, it's still me and you while we figure this life out
It's a state of derealization that love has put me in when you're around
It's understanding that those things are out of my control and while we're busy living
A different nightmare based on our skin pigmentation,
There's a similar nightmare occurring to someone else
There's a nightmare that lives in myself
Life will straighten itself out
Life has to straighten itself out
Can't sweat too hard on a past emotion, I got to keep focused
There's a vision on the line with every emotion
Maybe I need a therapy to help me out
You never asked how I was feeling, so I wrote the words out
Call it simplicity, because
I want you to understand every word that comes out my mouth
