lyrics

Opposite

HMM IT’S A LOW DOWN THING THOSE PEOPLE THAT ALWAYS TRY TO TELL US WHAT TO DO BUT DON’T SEEM TO ABIDE BY THEIR OWN RULES SO CAN YA HEAR IT…

CAN YA HEAR THE OPPOSITES IN A WORLD FULL A NEGATIVES AND POSITIVES WHEN DID IT CHANGE TO A DUALITY TO A BLACK OR A WHITE OR A WRONG OR A RIGHT IN A DAY OR A NIGHT IN THE DARK OR THE LIGHT I PREFER TO FIGHT OVER FLIGHT SO YOU PICK SHOULD WE GO OR SHOULD WE STOP AN TAKE A LOOK AROUND CAUSE A SOUND IS BORN OUT OF SILENCE IF YOU FLIP THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN EVEN THE MOST PEACEFUL PEOPLE WILL BECOME VIOLENT
AND THESE MOMENTS IN YOUR LIFE THAT CAN BRING THE MOST BENEFIT CAN BE THE MOST TRYIN

SO WHEN THE POLITICIANS TALK I HEAR THE OPPOSITE THEY SAY THERES HATE IN OUR HEARTS I FEEL THE OPPOSITE NO LONGER BOUND BY BOUNDLESS HYPOCRITES WE ARE WHAT WE CHOOSE TO BELIEVE THE WORLD IS NOW WHAT WE MAKE IT AND HOW WE CHOOSE TO SEE IT OUR MOST PRIMAL THOUGHT IS OF AN OPTIMIST SO UNLOCK THE SHACKLES OF MISCONCEPTION LET GO OF THOSE OLD GRUDGES

THE ONLY THING KEEPIN US ON THE GROUND ARE OUR OWN JUDGEMENTS SOMETIMES WE NEGLECT THE BASIC FACT THAT WERE ALL COUSINS SO LEND YA BROTHER A HELPIN HAND AND TRY TO END THE SUFFERIN NEVER LISTENED TO THOSE THAT SAID ID AMOUNT TO NOTHIN BUT RATHER KEPT ON TRUCKIN

ID ASK YA TO DO THE SAME IF YA GET KNOCKED DOWN YA GET BACK UP AGAIN AND IF IT HAPPENED TWICE YA'D GET BACK UP AGAIN IF I HAD TO PICK ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE THE HUMAN RACE ID SAY RESILIENCE AND ID SAY ON A LAST NOTE I THINK IT RINGS TO THE TONE OF A GOOD FEELIN.
