Alexipharmic - Sun lyrics

rate me

You've heard it said, life you love it to death

And truer words were never spoken from the breath of this chest

Envelop stress and give goodwill to the rest

Push the limits to the test just to spit this for the blessed

Digress toward the message in a movement to address

It's my quest to reflect life's compassion and respect

To show it's possible to crest the apex of what's best

Society has gotta be better than this mess

Move it forward through the storm, see the future's sun next

It's nothing but a momentary form to be trekked

I'm not impressed with those who continually oppress

And neglect their fellow man to keep their own goals abreast

Nevertheless - never be kept in check

In the end you've got your back cause life's a game of chess

A contest that traps lest you protect your neck

And spread wings like a caged bird flying out the nest

Put your palms in the air, reach em up to the sun

That illuminates the paths, that our lives will run

Cause the beauty's never done, it's constantly movin

This is the music for the midst of revolution...

This is for the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, overpopulated

Those destined to succeed, show it's possible to make it

Those prayin on their knees when it's too tough to take it

Helping to believe give em strength to embrace it

Time is temporary - no longer can we take it

For granted or bury dreams deeper than basements

Life is a gift - we often disgrace it

By looking for diversions and distractions to replace it

... so this is love at it's most basic

Giving more than you've been given to the human race with

The passion, desire, to alter our fate with

Power to move toward the promised land we've chased it's

For the kid who's in it just for the taste with

The knowledge it's impermanent, nothing will change it

Time passes fast and the choice that we're faced with

Whether or not to cease the moment we're graced with
