We see the same, in praise and blame Happiness and distress, your grandma and your mistress The humble sage, with equal vision A freezer and a heater, a dog and a dog eater See it the same, See it the same, See it the same Who has the vision, to see inside the prison The young and old, stone or gold The one that sees, friends and enemies The rich or poor, in a chair or on the floor See it the same, See it the same, See it the same See as they are, near or far Happiness goes inside, you have nothing to hide It's the danger, desire and anger With equal mind, see what you will find See it the same, See it the same, See it the same

Killing Me 03:49
This is not revealed in plain sight But you are not able to hide You destroy and fake what you believe We can see this atrocity You are the king of all that you survey They are the pawns inside of your domain What goes around is coming back again All of this fun to satisfy the tongue Your plans are damned Head in the sand Let's take a stand Meet my demands This life of hate On your bloody plate This unclean state Now hell can't wait It hurts to see, it hurts to see This killing spree, this killing spree Oh why do we, why do we We'll pay the fee, we'll pay the fee Please let them be, let them be Please set them free, set them free It's killing me, killing me It's killing me, killing me

Because I didn't use my brain I left that place, I was insane I fell from the sky inside the rain Eaten by people as a grain, as a grain I found myself here I took birth as a little baby boy I sucked my thumb and I played with all my toys But I couldn't hear above the noise And I wasn't like the other boys, the other boys Because I wanted to know So I tried to find my little way And I knew that I didn't wanna stay Something I learned the other day God, Krishna is the only way, the only way Now I have no fear I found myself here Because I wanted to know Now I have no fear Because I know where I'll go

I Love You 03:25
I love you because you gave me a cause Destroyed all my flaws, I love you because You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home Yeah, you let me follow you back home I love you because you pried my eyes wide Destroyed all my pride, I love you because You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home Yeah, you let me follow you back home Get up and let's go for the gold It's time to do what you're told Come in and get out of the cold Be the one to shatter the mold I love you because you told me the truth And showed me the proof, I love you because You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home You let me follow you back home Yeah, you let me follow you back home It's time to start having fun In quality let's become one Now I have nowhere to run Eternal life has begun

Wake Up 03:29
Wake up all you sleeping seeds and sprout Come out of your shell In tamas(ignorance) five uncontrollable senses Is a path to hell When you become honest with yourself Calling out for help That sound emanating from your core And you're wanting more Isn't it nice to know that when This body's old, that you don't have to worry what to do Just try, find the strength to climb on up Come out of your hole Try to find the truth in serving God With body, mind, and soul Isn't it nice to know that when This body's old, that you don't have to worry what to do You will get one more Yeah, there's another one in store And you can try another time But for now you're blind

Supersoul 03:52
I'm right here and you're here with me I am here and you're with me But, I never knew the way you made me Hold out your hand, demand to save me I feel your love, the love so crazy And I need that rush, a crush so hazy I'm right here and you're here with me I am here and you're with me But, you are so close yet so far away If I beg you, won't you come to stay I eat the fruit and do it my way You sit and view us two, it's ok I'm right here and you're here with me I am here and you're with me But, I always knew one day I'd find you Don't shut your eyes, that light won't blind you The time has come, for some, I'm here to remind you So thick and sick, it's a trick that binds you

Wasting Away 03:35
It's ok, you'll make it one day Work all week and church on Sunday It's ok, I'm here to say You'll make it, make it You can't fake it, he won't take it Get'n baked and get'n naked It's ok, I'm here to say You'll make it, make it Money roll'n, money rake it Pile it on 'till you can't take it It's ok, I'm here to say You'll make it, make it When you rot and hit rock bottom Left alone and all forgotten It's ok, I'm here to say You'll make it, make it, make it, make it Heavy times, they sure are comin' You won't change, you might be bummin' Not ok, I'm here to say You're wastin', wastin', wasting away

The Cure 03:17
We come from two different worlds And I know that you want me to see yours A boy looking for a girl And I know that you want me to be yours Let's wait maybe time will tell I don't know and I would like to be sure I've spent my time in hell I've been there and I'm looking for the cure Looking for the cure, yeah I'm looking for the cure Why aren't you looking for the cure You push and pull at my nerves I deserve the place I was before Deer in the road I must swerve Cut the curve and head to the seashore Lady ahead red light on She's a con and she's looking to score I've spent my time all wrong I've been there and I'm looking for the cure Looking for the cure, yeah I'm looking for the cure Why aren't you looking for the cure Looking for the cure Looking for the cure Yeah, I'm looking for the cure Yeah, I'm looking for the cure Why aren't you looking for the cure
