Lyrics John Reuben

John Reuben

All I Have

Are you disappointed?

Is this world a let down

With your head in the clouds it's time to get down

Head on collision crushed by dreams

So we leave our hearts at the accident scene shattered pieces scattered

Who told us it was okay to allow our thoughts to be flattered

And entertained with ideas that can't sustain

And our future once so confidently proclaimed

So where do you go from here when it all disappears

Apathy dries your tears until you don't care or you live and die

Occupied with disclaimers and reasons as to why realize life isn't lived in fantasies

No matter how much planning or strategy

Joy comes along with tragedy I own them all gladly

(chorus)

I'm alright I'm okay

I kind of like doing things this way

All I have is what God gives

And that's all the life that I was meant to live

I'm alright I'm okay

I kind of like doing things this way

All I have it what God gives

And that's all the life that I was meant to live

We're not taught trial and error

We're not taught nor are we prepared

So we fail against everyday opponents

All the while we're still living for glorious moments

And the media feeds the youth a false reality of what it takes to make yourself happy

And since they've got about a one in a billion shot

Why try and make them think it's something that it's not

No this ain't a movie this is real life

The spot light don't shine quite as bright as some might like

But that's alright cuz the starlight at night is more of a highlight than the highlife

The air I consume from the breath of creation renews my soul everyday I awake

Ah man tell me who knew that simply being content was the dream come true

(chorus)
