Smile.

Can't you see I am still me
anti-authority,
same philosphy,
enjoying life as much as I can I will.

Trying to create that contagious smile,
with that passion that I long to,
succeed in my ways.
Days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here
no more, no more, no more.
More, no more, no more, no more, no more

Won't you see you are not me,
why would you want to be,
you're an individual,
on your own do
what you want,
'cause you want to.

Trying to create that contagious smile,
with that passion that I long to,
succeed in my ways.
Days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here
no more, no more, no more.
More, no more, no more, no more, no more

Trying to create that contagious smile,
with that passion that I long to,
succeed in my ways.
Days pass by
I'm not gonna sit here
no more, no more, no more.

No more

SICK and angered by my FRIENDS
Extremely cold and HEARTLESS
talking shit behind my back about me
TO MY FRIENDS
The source a JEALOUS passion towards a SPIRIT
stuck in contention and fame

* Chorus*
Just need some time to myself again,
Need to bring back the old days
When IIIIIII was in control of my life
Again and Again

JUST endangered with my FRIENDS extremely bold and honest
I'll be when it comes to me
I said I'm sorry
But you don't hear me

*Chorus* 2x

I tried to say that I was sorry to you
but you don't think I speak honestly
Its OK 'cause I can move on now
I am so sorry
NO!

*Chorus* 2x

life sucks sometimes
friendships turn to lies
a hatred in disguise it brings tears to my eyes
I can see the truth from the neutral side in my mind
confusion cripples me unto my element of control unsureness
emotional times I'm just
traumas etched in my mind
I can see it all the time
I've seen more than my share of pain and suffering
I am just fine
respecting something more than nothing all the time
and It's time to move on
emotional times I'm just fine
emotional times im just fine
I have seen my faith sailing away
and I have seen my faiths coming back to me
I can see it
coming back to me
I can see it
I can taste it
I can live it cause i'm just fine
ohh
emotional times i'm just fine
emotional times i'm just fine

well I need to be around you
and I need to see your eyes on me
now
cause I need to caress your face with mine
and I need to know that you care
cause I bleed in pain
when I'm without your soul
cause I love you on a level so high

Chorus
it's hard sometimes I know (repeat)
I am so me around you (repeat)
we have to be together

now

I'll miss you when I'm gone
but here, now is where I belong
will you wait around for me
Well I hope so cause without each other we're wrong

Chorus

ive come to grips on reality
through fatality
realized just how much happiness brings to me
fight
lately doubt and worries inflicted my mind with an illness of ego
the worst of it's kind
been so busy unhappy
un nerved
i can see my destiny is chasing me
I am finally happy and ready to go
I had a one nite stand with myself last night
the fright of a lifetime
once again i have proven my strength to myself
on my own

Frankly modest
Speech dishonest
Eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
Hovering carcass
Molding earth
Filthy birth afterlife
Friction based upon fiction
Replacing friendship
Untrueness
Speculation
Concentration
Heresy is controlling us
All this flagrant foul stench upon us
Overwhelming everybody like an imaginary forklife brother
You point you finger as a scolding motherfucker sucker
Blaming evil upon another
Under that pedestal you hold yourself so high above us
I can't imagine what it's like to not a give a shit about nothin

Lived the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their individuality
Separating us all

I can't believe my friends would make such a lie
Even though it was I that dishonored your trust
But it's done
I can't change the past
I am gonna make us last
Just believe in me and I'll show you that they're nothing true
They point their fingers as a scolding motherfucker sucker
Blaming evil upon another
Under that pedestal they hold themsevles so high above us
I can't imagine what it's like to not a give a shit about nothin
But they're
Frankly modest
Speech dishonest
Eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky

Lived the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their individuality
Separating us all

You're frankly modest
You're speech dishonest
You're eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky
Because you're frankly modest
You're speech dishonest
You're eyes upon us like a vulture in the sky

Lived, lived the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their individuality
Separating us all
Lived the whole damn story
Led in motion
Peers are punished for their individuality
Separating us all

sometimes i just sit back and wonder what was meant to be learned from that event that occured
everything happens for a reason
right
i left behind just another tragic lesson in life
an organic rush adrenaline flight high above the traumatized situation of life
its ironic
considerate rarity patron of love
higher knowledge engulfs me
cause the blast of fate a lesson
to my eyes concerned and overwhelmed theirs were of fear yet i'm feelin so empty inside
and yet it burns so akward this time
tears a waterfall of acid cries from his eyes
i need to recognize
its meant to be
he's alive and his cries just begin arisin
suprisin as well
this little boy proud of helpin those in need but he's not me but just maybe he could be
i can see it now because
im a hero in his eyes temporarily blind/
this immature kid a spirit as well an angel
hiding by helping and wanting to understand me
it's somethin with my pride
lies
i cannot hide my true side
and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing that's the way i am
am i hard to recognize?
what do i need to realize?
why can't i see with my own fucking eyes?
what do i need to see?

I'm seeing tunnel vision in a world that's dark and cold
I can't believe how much I've changed since the days of old
I know
it's temporary but
I need to focus straight
I can't believe I lost control of my fate
I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win
I can't afford to blow this one

I hate myself sometimes
I love myself
I need this way of life,
because it holds me.

I hate myself sometimes
I love myself.
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthy

Now that I've made it through those lies and deceit,
I think what's done is done and I can't complain anymore
I am sure,
that I have found myself again it feels great
I can't believe I'd lost control of my fate.

I need forgiveness from the people I truly care about
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out
I'm gonna win
I can't afford to blow this one

I hate myself sometimes
I love myself
I need this way of life because it holds me.

I hate myself sometimes
I love myself.
If contradiction's the way of life
Happiness is wealthiness is healthiness

i'm your mirrors reflection
what you dont like about me is
what you hate in yourself
you should see through others eyes before
you go ahead and make em feel like shit
stop it but you won't because you hate yourselves images bitch
sometimes i get so frustrated haunting visions in the back of my mind
oh you struck a pose with your hand extended
open arms in an idiocratic ways you try to lie to yourself but
you cant break through that sacred wisdom of your spirit
used me but you don't want to know me
used me but you dont know
sometimes i would give anything just to be something more than
sometimes i would give anything to be something more than nothing

I'm just a person like you,
I am just a fuck up thats true,
But your the only one I'll turn to by my side,

Everyday and night,
It's time to,
Climb out of this big black hole,

Even if I can justify that I'm alive and alright,
You're still the only one I'll turn to by my side,

Everyday and night,
It's time to,
Climb out of this big black hole,

So I cry alone,
So I cry alone,
I can't believe you drag me down
Again

Just when I think that I'm fine
I always then realize
That I'm the only one to turn to
me inside

Everyday and night,
It's time to,
Climb out of this big black hole,

So I cry alone,
So I cry alone,
I can't believe you drag me down
Again

So I cry alone,
So I cry alone,
I can't believe you drag me down
Again

I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck up it's true
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck up!
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck up it's true
I'm just a person like you
I'm just a fuck up!

So I cry alone, (I'm just a fuck up!)
So I cry alone, (I'm just a fuck up!)
I can't believe you drag me down, (I'm just a fuck up!)
Again, (I'm just a fuck up!)

So I cry alone, (I'm just a fuck up!)
So I cry alone, (I'm just a fuck up!)
I can't believe you drag me down, (I'm just a fuck up!)
Again

Ill times rollin'
Lackin' the flow
Ache in my throat
And wisdom seems so lost
And, yet, it's better in ways
It's different
I miss those old school meditations
When relaxing and gettin' visions was a given
I propose a toast to myself
To find the time
To ask my Lord and galaxy
To come back to me
Please come back
I need to say goodbye
To these old ways
Stagnant lifestyles no longer in my way
I need to keep on movin'
So I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
They help me proceed as I lay
And dream of my future
I miss those times

Come back to me
Come back to me
Please come back to me
Please, please come back to me
Please

Been so busy lately achieving what I need
So in a way it's replacing the old
It's different but that's ok
Because I feel the need for change, again
It's time to comeback to me
Please come back
I need to say goodbye to these old ways
Stagnant lifestyles no longer in my way
I've gotta to keep on movin'
So I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
They help me proceed as I lay
And dream of my future
I miss those times
So I pray and wait for a sign from my guides
They help me proceed as I lay
And dream of my future
I miss those times
Come back to me
Come back to me
Please come back to me
Please, please come back to me
Please, come back, to, me
Please come back
Please come back
Please come back, to, me (to me)
Come back to me
Please come back to me
Please, please come back to me
Please come back to me
Come back to me
Please come back to me
Please, please come back to me
Please
