"Paperback News"
Chorus
Waz a waz a waz a about it
To have your mind so clouded
As you all have the commercializism dumbfound you
Instead of having the paperback news drown you
Beyond in your years you try to find you
But all in all its about seeing and helping who surrounds you
Verse 1
Yes sometimes you find yourself blind
Blind as you flip a quarter into a fountain from your blindside
Wishin, wishing for some luck to come your way
As you walk through the city on this cold night
You often think when times are tight
What should you do? You feel like your battling your mind
Battling the thoughts inside
As I cope with this and life I write these lines
These lines to show the development of who I am
And to show the emotion right from where it began
Verse 2
The emotion from when it began
The time when I first sang
That was when the pain went down the drain
My grandmother said dream with your heart as she many times proclaimed
So in other words I plan to put this into action
When things get difficult I will break it down from the fraction
No matter what the transactions
I will be myself with my heart in my hand so you can't say I don't ever have emotion
With these motions as life leads on
With each breath that I take as I walk on
I think, life won't be easy
But it never is, thats why I said I would spit fire to the rain
Chorus
Waz a waz a waz a about it
To have your mind so clouded
As you all have the commercializism dumbfound you
Instead of having the paperback news drown you
Beyond in your years you try to find you
But all in all its about seeing and helping who surrounds you
Verse 3
As I proceeded down the sidewalks
And I hear the rumors and words as people talk
Conversing about the doubts, and their faults
It makes my mind pause
Just sit there and think where is the love
Why is it that we all live in fear
I know things aren't what they appear
The regular thought process seems to disappear
I am mind blown right now as I take a look onto the news stand
As I try to keep my head up and be a man
But it gets complex when the sillouette of the present effects you
You try to put together and connect what the reflection is
What apprears to be in that reflection in the water
You can then see with clear eyes instead of being clouded of faulter
Verse 4
Just lay your eyes upon that sunrise
You willl notice no matter how much time flies
That things seem to be barricaded but don't let it be debated
Go on and think like the man who cliche's the face of the fact that the sunny side won't be ended
Never live as if your pretending
Just live as if your goaltending
Block out the shots that can take a blow
But ignore them and make it better your flow
Live to bestow and pray for them
As the outline of their words are very slim
Slim to the meaning of emotion
So don't worry just be you and who you are
It doesn't matter whatcha got as long as you know who you got
Pick up this current news its is on the headlines
It won't be left behind and stuck in the sidelines
Chorus
Waz a waz a waz a about it
To have your mind so clouded
As you all have the commercializism dumbfound you
Instead of having the paperback news drown you
Beyond in your years you try to find you
But all in all its about seeing and helping who surrounds you
