understand

15 minutes of break
that's all that she had
she wanted to talk to him
He said
I don't want to talk to you
Why'd you keep calling me back?

Couldn't help over hear the conversation
thought about how short life is
why cant we spend this precious time
in doing something good?

So I walk up
to that man
I tell him
to understand, her
You cant live your
life too fast
You'd always want to smile at it
whenever you look back.

You cant measure people you love
nor the ones that you don't
you said you spend so much on her
did she ever ask you any money for sleeping over?

You cant put anyone
in that kinda situation
and the world will then truly seem like
such a small place
all the contradictions that we make
to each other
take us further
and further
apart
when we should be
closing in

So walk up
to that man
tell him
understand
you cant live your
life like that
you'd always want to smile at it
whenever you look back.

So I walk up
to that man
I tell him
to understand, her
You cant live your
life too fast
You'd always want to smile at it
whenever you look back.

get up

In a way you're living out, on a busy stream
but life is not, a movie screen
You don't know when your time's up
everything will fall and become dust

You gotta get up, get up
get up on your feet
You gotta get up, sit up
get off the street
You gotta get up, get up
get up on your feet
You gotta get up, get up
get off of the streets

look at all the time we spend on ourselves
big city busy life the globalists are taking over
you got to go organic
or your life is in trouble

You gotta get up, get up
get up on your feet
You gotta get up, sit up
get off the street
You gotta get up, get up
get up on your feet
You gotta get up, get up
get off of the streets

today

He walks down the road, the city streets
filled with smiling faces and Autumn leaves

A very good morning to you...
people are saying to each other
Ain't it such a lovely day
what you gonna do with your today?

He's just a guy from Pakistan
Rockistan is where he lives
spending time in Washington
staring at capitol hill

She says, this is the place
where worlds decisions are made
this is the place
where lives can be saved.

He walks down old town Alexandria
side walk cafes, through city maze
Whats the headline, do we know whats going on
the world is in a lot of pain today

A very good morning to you...
people are saying to each other
Ain't it such a lovely day
what you gonna do with your today?

She says, this is the place
where worlds decisions are made
this is the place
where lives can be saved.

She says, this is the place
where worlds decisions are made
this is the place
where lives can be saved.

He's just a guy from Pakistan
Rockistan is where he lives
spending time in Washington
wishfully staring at the Hill...

this is it.

So there I go and turn on the screen
everybody, somehow talking about me
Dont they have something, better to do
everyday they kill, and they are coming for you.

Everybody is talking about the Muslim
some are shaking hands while some are hiding from him
The topic is controversial, so they say
everybody's trying to make a buck out of it.

I see the faces, looking mean
what are they airing on those big TV screens?
Opinion makers and commentators, news room anchors or moderators
people wake up you're surrounded by alligators
dont give in to these corporations
they got vested agendas
you can do better

So there you go and turn off the screen
you'll get nothing if you keep talking about me
Dont they have something, better to do
everyday they're killing, and the next one is you.

Everybody is talking about the Muslims
some are shaking hands while some are hiding from them
The topic is controversial, so they say
everybody's trying to make a buck out of this
everybody's trying to make a buck out of this
everybody's trying to make a buck out of this.

Everybody is talking about the Muslim
some are shaking hands while some are hiding from him
Dont they have something, better to do
everyday they kill, and they are coming for you.

that's how it goes

Everybody 's dependent on, hanging on to another one
everybody lingering on, to someone else's loaded gun

Aren't you full of so much pride
arrogance and between the lies
what you gonna do with all this wealth
you cant even take it to your grave

Alone
you're nothing but a peace of
stone
and alone
you're nothing
but a stone
move on
to do that one thing
that you're feeling in your bones

that's what elders say
that's what native say
that's how it goes

human beings
so pre conceived
the magic is when you
do something
of your own

with all that's been given
to you
you're not the mortal
open you eyes to the one Who is

Alone
you're nothing
but a piece of stone
alone
you're nothing
but a stone
hold on
to that one thing
that's in your bones
think of the moment when He breathed in you
that's how it grows

alone
you're nothing but a peace of
stone
and alone
you're nothing
but a stone
so hold on
to that one thing
that you feel in your bones
alone
you're nothing...
but a peace of stone
that's lying there
that's how it goes
why none knows?
