Yob One - Beyond Real lyrics

The more I know, the more I ask questions What's the point of teaching if we don't apply the lessons Tests are there so we can learn how to learn Unlearn what you know, reach the point of no return Distance blurs imperfections The world in a state of regression Era of misinformation The world is sick, but we're all playing patients We want change, but money rules us all Actors in an-out-of-tune musical We've been trying' for years to live in unison But the only uniting thing is the bloody guns If peace is the dream, for the gun dealer war is Trapped in the Panopticon freedom is in shortage Knowledge is abundant, but no one to look for it Dying unconscious of the results of our choices [Chorus] Why are we afraid to give Why are we so afraid, to live? We rebuild the past A past that ain't workin' We livin' in our heads But let me tell you somethin' Reality is outside our minds Go insane, and you'll find where freedom lies In the dark with an aching heart Strummin' on a broken guitar Love turns into hate quickly But hate never goes back to love Sometimes I feel the illusion too deeply Feelin' like my heart's gonna beat me See me sitting' in the shadow, outlined by the moon Haven't seen the sun in ages, rappin' on the roof, I'm Watching' people playin' from above like a movie director Takin' part only to give the world a direction I don't know what else is out there but, I'm in a foolish dimension Cross-eyed, but we're all just giving our best shots That's why we're in constant war with ourselves, man Holes we can't fill - alcohol is fun, and good s**-love… f**! [Chorus] Why are we afraid to give Why are we so afraid, to live? We rebuild the past A past that ain't workin' We livin' in our heads But let me tell you somethin' Reality is outside our minds Go insane, and you'll find where freedom lies Timeless Oasis that is nothing but dryness People drinking the finest But inside all of them are lifeless In a world where I can't find kindness That doesn't have an interest behind it I'm bound to break the silence Show you the world in which I live Peaceful, eternal, brightness Shinin' in the midst of darkness Smiling', hugging' the heartless We're born/we live/we die with nothin' But this joy that's always there You getta get in touch with what your soul knows In order to flow you gotta think outside the bubble, so C'mon, feel it, let it guide you, roll on Climb up the golden stairs [Chorus] Lies, realise, real lies...
