lyrics

Pick your head up off the ground you might just need it
Pick yourself up off the floor you're not defeated

Take the wrapper off of these suckers we don't need them and these dumb mothers don't know how to show me real love. They cover up all the tears and the years of destruction, a misconception of a book that's all about preaching love. I'm giving up it's abusive throwing love in a noose they string it up for loop they'll cover up all the proof and call it truth. Don't let them inside your head because they will strip you bare and leave you for dead.

Every time I come home seems to be more empty, more hollow I need to uproot and replant me. I need to wash clean let it all rain down, I need to let this bullshit fertilize my ground. I need to be a better man or be a more honest liar, let the laughter infect overwhelm and inspire. I need me to be me and not anybody else the most knowledgeable thing to learn is yourself. I need to forcibly insert the love back into existence gain wisdom, I need not be defined by religion. I need to learn not to let the anger cloud my vision hold my head up high and move forward with precision. I need to step foot outside absorb the sunshine keep my hands to the sky, keeps me feeling alive. I need all of these things if I strive to thrive. I need to love my life and keep staying alive.
