I wouldn't ask if you weren't able I wouldn't up and waste your time But all I see are written fables All these people lost in rhymes
A couple smokes now In the dark A couple dreams gone unheard Life's a work of art I see that boy there Whitest lies He's got the makings but he Doesn't want to try
But everything you see and do It's all reflection you You gotta raise those fists and fight C'mon boy now be a light
You take the pain turn it Into a sunrise You wrestle fear and envy Don't believe the lies I know you got it in you To do what's good and right I know you love with all of you Go on be a light
The subway screeches to a dead halt A passenger can only ride
But everyday you've lived your truth Followed did all you could do You gotta know that it's alright All you can do is be a light
You take the pain turn it Into a sunrise You wrestle fear and envy Don't believe the lies I know you got it in you To do what's good and right I know you love with all of you Go on be a light
I wanna thank you for believing For knowing that you'd make it through It's all a legend that you're leaving Another day for me and you A couple smokes now In the dark
