Something Real

There was a shadow over heaven
On the day that I was born
They tried to bless me with holy water
But I was baptized in a storm, oh yeah
I was raised with a crossbow aiming for something real
I sent out the arrow from behind my defense shield
Eternal dreamer so full of life
A faithful believer soon I will arise
They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
I used to turn the other cheek
Till they pushed me too far
Now I'm right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to balance as the end draws nearer, oh yeah
I give you everything just for a while
You got the best of me this is my time
The seed I've been given hallelujah
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand
Open your hearts it can be simple
If you just show what you feel
Go look for something real
You can call me a peace warrior
A dark soul of light
I sing for the future
And the melody is my guide
Sailing the waters
Of this endless lullaby
My ship is leaking
Can't stop it if I try, oh
They tried to put me down
And it struck me hard
I used to turn the other cheek
Till they pushed me too far
Now I'm right on target
And my thoughts are clearer
Closer to harmony as my love feels nearer
I give you everything just for a while
You got the best of me this is my time
The seed I've been given hallelujah
To grow my ambitions high
All you people of the western land
Is it so hard to smile and lend a helping hand
Open your hearts it can be simple
If you just know what you feel
Go look for something real
