Lyrics
Livin' in a world ruled by unconsciousness
People killin' each other
If only each one of us would breathe
Before actin' out of fear
My whole life I was too afraid to act
'Cause I didn't want to hurt anyone or anythin'
Didn't want to screw the whole world up more
So I stood still, barely breathin'
Waitin' for someone to take my hand and show me how to help
But that person never came
Instead I heard a voice from deep inside me whisper that I had to move
Or my whole life would pass me by
So slowly I began to put one foot in front of the other
Driven by an inner fire that threatened to burn me from the inside out
Yeah I was still afraid to die
But more afraid not to live
I had to try, try to wake up a world frozen by the same fear that had me immobilized
Even if it meant gettin' killed by those ruled by their unconsciousness
Too afraid to look at themselves and what they'd become
Now even if they kill me, I know that the truth will live on
Sooner or later we all have to embrace our humanity and reconnect to our empathy
Livin' in a world ruled by unconsciousness
People killin' each other
If only each one of us would breathe
Before actin' out of fear
I have to put my hatred for them aside and have compassion for their ignorance
So blinded by their egos that they no longer knew themselves
Ha, if only we all knew ourselves
It's not too late to look in the mirror, to feel the pain of what you've done
To forgive your wrongs and help to heal the wounds you've created in yourself and others
Join me in my plea for peace
No matter what you've done
You can still do right
You can still get to know the real you if you choose to
You can still help to save the world you once were killin'
It's not too late, nah it's not too late
Livin' in a world ruled by unconsciousness
People killin' each other
If only each one of us would breathe
Before actin' out of fear
