Compared To What

Now you know

You know just how the whole story goes

Just against the real and the proudest who laugh

Thought i let you know what i'm giving back

Confusion, Difussion

Just show it, You know it

Come'on you can discover (Discover)

You know you can recover (Recover)

You'd be (arriving)

At new (Horizon)

It will be (Surprising)

To me (Keep rising)

Keep rowing (Keep rowin')

Keep showing (Keep showin')

Keep it true and strong in your heart

And you'll get by

But only if you'll make it real

Real, Make it real

We live the lie, deny the love

Hangin' on, with a push and shove

Possession is the motivation

That is hangin' up the whole damn nation

Looks like we always end up in a rut (everybody now!)

Tryin' to make it real — compared to what?

(Real, make it real)

Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs

Twisted children killin' frogs

fool dumb bigots gainin' power

Tired old ladies kissin' dogs

Isn't the human race above them all? (I can't use it!)

Try to make it real — compared to what?

(Real ,make it real )

The President, he's got his war

Still don't know what it is for

They change the game with no rhyme or reason

Drop the mans flag ang they call it treason

We're chicken-feathers roasting like a nut (ooh baby now)

Tryin' to make it real — compared to what?

(Real make it real)

Church on Sunday, sleep and nod

Tryin' to duck the wrath of God

Preacher's fillin' us with fright

He never wondered if he's really right

Iv'e got a fire buring in my gut (I can't kill it)

Tryin' to make it real — compared to what?

confusion, difussion

Just show it, you know it

Discover, recover

Surprise'm, keep rising

Surprise it, realize it

Keep rowin', keep showin'

Keep show'em, keep flowin'

Come'on with me baby bat this

And you'll get by

And you'll get by

But only if you'll make it real

Make it real...
