Live Like You Mean It
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm at the end of my rope with so much left to go
I'm running out of tomorrows and no signs of getting close
Running around in circles, wearing ourselves thin
Is it true we've come so far?
or are we right back where we first began?
A least we're still breathing
But we ask ourselves is this a life worth living?
TAKE BACK our lives and live them,
TAKE BACK tomorrow's days
Everything we are, and everything we hope to be
They're telling us who we are and telling us what to be
Take a number and have a seat cause we'll decide your destiny
Trading names for numbers, we all fall in line
Bar codes deciding your self-worth and you fuel machines
that pollute this earth, alright
At least we're still breathing
But this system is making sheep out of human beings
TAKE BACK our lives and live them,
TAKE BACK tomorrow's days
Everything we are, and everything we hope to be
TAKE BACK our dreams and chase them,
BREAK FREE from yesterday
Everything we were, and everything we could never be
Live for tomorrow's days, forget those yesterdays
Live for tomorrow's days and forget those yesterdays
and we sing, yeah we sing
This is your call, will you answer?
It's time to make a choice cause it's now or never
You think that you're alive, but you're already dead!
TAKE BACK OUR LIVES!!
