Alive

You want to catch me with the greed in your words

Keeping me captive, put locks on the doors

Did your best to scare me off

Tried to put to rest my voice

Tried to make me think I don't have much of a choice

Pushing me when I was down

Playing low tricks from behind

Looking for new ways to take control of my mind

But I'm alive

I'm gonna feel the warmth of the sun

Hear the beat of the drums

Feel the wind blowing on my face

I'll let the stream float me around

Put my ears to the ground

Send some vibes straight down to your place

Where you'll pace around your golden cage

Gulping meds to cool the rage

getting postcards from the whole wide world

When things are happening so fast

And karma bites you in the ass

I'm not the one who'll end up getting burned

Got glaze in your veins and fire in your eyes

When people around you are dropping like flies

You've become the king at this

Growling up and striking fear

But I know there's no fun if no one can hear

All your dreams are looking vain

all your riches disappear,

You're a modern Midas turning bliss into tears

But I'm alive

I'm gonna feel the warmth of the sun

Hear the beat of the drums

Feel the wind blowing on my face

I'll let the stream float me around

Put my ears to the ground

Send some vibes straight down to your place

Where you'll pace around your golden cage

Gulping meds to cool the rage

getting postcards from the whole wide world

When things are happening so fast

And karma bites you in the ass

I'm not the one who'll end up getting burned

I'll make a toast tonight, just thinking how the days and seas and miles divide us

I'll dance around the fire, burning all the memories of you

I'm gonna feel the warmth of the sun

Hear the beat of the drums

Feel the wind blowing on my face

I'll let the stream float me around

Put my ears to the ground

Send some vibes straight down to your place
