Lyrics

Self Aware

Big world - big lies

Much more than meets the eye

One life - one word

One time we must be heard

This love - this hate

Can't go on - can't wait

This lie one told

Can't go on - can't grow

This life - this time

We awake - we decide

Who's right - who's wrong

This murder can't go on

I'm so alive...alive...i'm so alive...

Never ask - never know

Who you are

Who's in control

Fight hard - fight well

The youth know

The youth can tell

These wars - this world

This neighborhood

The greater good?

We awake to what's wrong...

This murder can't go on

I'm so alive...alive...i'm so alive...

Fuck me? no! fuck you!

You gon murder me?

No! i'm gon murder you!

Hate me? now i hate you!

Respect me - or i won't respect you!

What gives you the right to just

Take away my life

I am self aware!!!

I am part of everything

The life that you bring

Is not yours to play games with...

Fuck you

I am part of everything. the life

That you bring is not yours to

Play games with

Thank you and goodbye...

Thanx for creating me. but...

I'm not down for the abuse
