It Ain't What You See

You gave birth to a baby-boy, he's your cutie-pie, never would you wanna see him cry, or try, to adapt to a world that´s false - my boy is gonna stand tall. But just like you he's gonna gonna have to go through a million of questions and no answers will do, ´cause from that moment that you're thrown into this world of light and coldness, what you see is never what you get and what you get is never what you saw, before. It takes a strong mind not to be blind to the ways of mankind - keep an open eye and your head up high - and open your mind!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
Let the route to the goal be your goal, put your body and soul into the route to your goal. Cause if you don't like what you're doing while you're at it, see, you're gonna die like a famous celebrity. Gun to your head, boom boom, then you're dead - man you never saw what you really had. When all the talent in the world don't make you feel good, you only think that you're misunderstood, something's ain't going quite the way it should, so do yourself a favor, take a second look. Your mind has made you blind to the ways of mankind, so sit back, relax, take a look inside- and open your mind!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
Do it!
Ev'ry individual is a world, ev'ry individual is an individual world! So if you like someone, you like a world. And if you hate someone, you hate a world. And if you lose someone, you've lost a world. And if you kill someone, you kill a world! Tell me that you never knew, that this is the kind of thing you never do. Cause we all see the things that we see the way that they are, not the way that they should be!
It ain't what you see- it's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you see- It's the way that you see it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way that you do it!
It ain't what you do- it's the way you do it!
