Verse 1:
Its not easy
no its not
no its not

I won’t try
Don’t try
don’t try

keep me going
keep going
keep going

Down this road
this road
this road

Pre-Chorus
gentle imagination
my own proclamation
to fight for whats really mine
and do everything to stay alive
cast away down
the stream
the bullets open
the seams
and cut away what isn’t real
doesn’t change how I feel

Chorus:
shoot your mind right
into the sky
burn the lies
they won’t
satisfy
they won’t satisfy
no they won’t satisfy
Its my right

Verse 2:
The world is always
changing
The people are changing too
power, greed,
hunger
twist our souls like a screw
Political
promises
they play like its just a game
Bright lights and
money
they all just want the fame

Pre-Chorus
gentle imagination
my own proclamation
to fight for whats really mine
and do everything to stay alive
cast away down
the stream
the bullets open
the seams
and cut away what isn’t real
doesn’t change how I feel
Chorus
shoot your mind right
into the sky
burn the lies
they won’t
satisfy
they won’t satisfy
no they won’t satisfy
Its my right

Bridge:
Definitions
Inhibitions
what you’re scared
what you love
everything you waste your time with
everything that is worthwhile
The world’s unfair
The world is cruel
Beauty lies in far off places
Go search there and find your fate
Chorus:
shoot your mind right
into the sky
burn the lies
they won’t
satisfy
they won’t satisfy
no they won’t satisfy
Its my right

I hope you can understand the issues I'm trying to deal with, I was inspired by a documentary discussing Indira Gandhi, the second Prime Minister of India. It gave insight about the world, its issues, and the politics and war we face.
