GETTING REAL
WITH WHAT WE FEEL
PLEASE NOTE: if you are easily offended by words commonly considered inappropriate for churches
or children, you may be offended by these pages... unconditional freedom of speech is allowed here J
can you believe in yourself enough
that's unconditionally
to believe in something outside of yourself
unconditionally
can you commit to yourself enough
that is completely
to commit to someone else
completely
when I look deep into your eyes
I see you turning away
that underlines the questions
I ask you today
you don't even believe in your god with any conviction
do you see the things that you do every day
you worship the money that buys you into tradition
as long as you keep up appearances all is ok
just pay your dues and they will have nothing to say
but just who are they... anyway
can you trust yourself enough
that's unconditionally
to completely trust to someone else
unconditionally
can you give yourself enough
that is completely
to receive something from yourself
completely
when I look deep into your eyes
I see you turning away
that underlines the questions
I ask you today
you don't believe in anything with any conviction
do you see the things that you do every day
you worship the money that buys you into position
as long as you keep up appearances all is ok
just pay your dues and they will have nothing to say
but just who are they... anyway
what really matters in the end
not even how many people show up at your grave
but why they come and how will you be remembered
where will you go... what did you save?
were you the first or the last to leave the rave?
what really matters in the end
is what you do every day
how many hearts do you live in
and what do those hearts stay
how many say go... how many say stay
what do you not hear when you go away
can you love yourself enough
that's unconditionally
to completely love to someone else
unconditionally
can you be yourself enough
that is completely
to share something real with someone else
honestly
when I look deep into your eyes
I see you turning away
that underlines the questions
I ask you today
