my eyes - spearit bear lyrics
when i open my eyes
i can’t help but close ’em back in reaction
to everything i see
melanated people out there
dying to be free
i gotta stick up for my brothers and
all my sisters getting kidnapped
and stuffed into vans
with no description makes me sick man
what’s the country becoming
when they’ve got money for weapons
but not food for the stomach
like 2pac said
i just repeat it in a different way
because it’s just the same sh*t
but a different day
we gotta get ourselves together now
work to be better
we have to do more than just making posts
or writing a letter.
i had to put my ego aside
had to get rid of the denial
had to swallow my pride
whenever i’m looking for answers
i just look at the sky
and ask the big one up there
why so many people have to die?
and i, i know i’ll prolly never
get an answer back because
they’ll tell me that answer is inside
and i, i keep on looking but
it’s lost in my mind
let the light reveal the truth
because we’re runnin’ out of time, yeah
and i know it’s hard sometimes
but you gotta get through it
so you see the light
everybody want’s to make it
to the top that’s right
but people shouldn’t make it
how they value their life no
so build a foundation ground up
stop tryin’ to share water from an empty cup
and when the pressure comes down
and you’re feelin’ stuck
let your spirit shine through
no you don’t need luck
my eyes, they don’t lie, they can’t hide
can’t hide what i feel inside
and i know that some day i’ll be fine
everything that i need will be provided
and i’ll tell you right now
i’ll never sell my soul
no i don’t need money
got a heart of gold
material things that are bought and sold
no, they don’t really matter
can’t take ’em when you go
and raise your hands if you had a hard life
time to make some plans
no more talking ’bout that “street life”
think about your kids
or your husband or your sweet wife
and if it’s only you then
you’re the only thing you need
that’s right
because when i open my eyes
i can’t help but close ’em back when
i see so many living a lie
are you working for a living
or just working ’till you die
find the passion that is missing
in your life if you decide
and if you want a hint
just follow the love
it’s the best guide, a gift
given from above
you gotta find the right fit
just like a glove
always remember that
you are more than enough
and i know the bar seems high
floatin’ in the sky like a satellite
don’t let the height get to ya
stop living in fright
gotta do what you love from
day into the night
my eyes, they don’t lie, they can’t hide
can’t hide what i feel inside
and i know that some day i’ll be fine
everything that i need will be provided
and i’ll tell you right now
i’ll never sell my soul
no i don’t need money
got a heart of gold
material things that are bought and sold
no, they don’t really matter
can’t take ’em when you go
my eyes, they don’t lie, they can’t hide
can’t hide what i feel inside
and i know that some day i’ll be fine
everything that i need will be provided
my eyes, they don’t lie, they can’t hide
can’t hide what i feel inside
and i know that some day i’ll be fine
everything that i need will be provided
