I'm sick of people thinking things will always be the same
Who's this? What's that? And hey, man, here's where ya have to stand
It's a little game we like to play to find each others place
Even though we all know we're sharing the exact same space
So I'll take my silly organ sound and express my words
Well, man, you can't do that, here's where you have to stand
In line with a system that I never even agreed with
Wondering everyday, why does it have to be like this?
Woah! I can feel you put me in a direction, and I said no
Woah! I can see you put me in a system and I said free
Give me a reason why, (I can hide)
Learning to realize, (The world is mine)
Counting the days gone by, (I need some time)
Just give me a reason why, (Cause I choose to realize!)
They put us in little cubes and tell us how to do our jobs
Saying that there's no more left for revolution
But I'm sorry sir, I'm going to have to stand and disagree
Cause no matter what, you'll never ever ever ever get to me
I'll always have my light, my will, my creativity
To shine bright upon you and all the world you see
What would happen if we spent out time creating harmony
Instead of all the destructive, lost, calamity?
The clock is ticking away, what are you doing today?
The clock is ticking away, what are you doing today?
Give me a reason why, (I can hide)
Learning to realize, (The world is mine)
Counting the days gone by, (I need some time)
Just give me a reason why, (Cause I choose to realize!)
Give me a reason why
Learning to realize (Learning to realize)
Counting the days gone by
Just give me a reason why (Just give me a reason why)
Give me a reason why, (I can hide)
Learning to realize, (The world is mine)
Counting the days gone by, (I need some time)
Just give me a reason why, (Cause I choose to realize!) (x2)
