Open your eyes
See the world for what it really is
[Verse 1]
I gotta deal with this lying and perpetrating, stressing and straining
Not succeeding, procrastinating, point fingers and blaming
The temptation of women, lust, and the failure to fight it
Getting doors slammed in my face and still smiling despite it
Learning how to check my ego and accepting correction
The hope of accomplishment mixed with the fear of rejection
The struggle to make my own knowledge reach its eliteness
Wanna cry but holding back to show no signs of my weakness
The good and the evil that clash in constant defiance
That live inside of me joined in a unholy alliance
Supposed to be partners who ain’t never down when you need ‘em
The thin line that sits between incarceration and freedom
The ways we praise things and disrespect one another
Showing more love to our cars than we show to each other
The deep spiritual famine that we rarely examine
Damaging thought mismanagement the hand of Satan’s programming
[Chorus]
So look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
Stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
Quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
Don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
See the world for what it really is
[Verse 1]
I gotta deal with this lying and perpetrating, stressing and straining

The hope of accomplishment mixed with the fear of rejection
The struggle to make my own knowledge reach its eliteness

The good and the evil that clash in constant defiance
That live inside of me joined in a unholy alliance
Supposed to be partners who ain’t never down when you need ‘em
