Sonny Eldona - Running Out of Time

Remind me what you see
I hit the bottom and got myself better
Since everyone's character
Made my character better
By the actions of them and then me
Sure we just wanna be free
And I wonder if it's ever going to happen
Since everything happens
By those making it happen
It's the way we believe it should be
I really think we'd all agree
How much more can we take
Cause the longer we're taking
All the lies and the faking
We'll live in absurdity
Forget living cautiously
You can have anything that you dream
Just believe what you're dreaming
Then you'll see all your dreams
Become your new reality

But we're running
Running out of time friends, look
Look at all the violence
And worse, all of the acceptance
I can't believe we let this
Be the world we let it be

I'm ready for a better way
Exhausted by the ignorance
Just another instance
Of an ignorant sentence
Colored skin has you all afraid
What else is there left to say
The story has never changed
If the story would change
All the people in danger
Could live to see another day
But we've all been led astray
Misinformed to propagate hate
Now the hate that we're forming
It's a hate that's abnormal
You gotta sleep in the bed that you make
Now the truth is on display
The powers that be are insane
When they're killing their own
Just to sit on a throne
Then it's time to end their little game

But we're running
Running out of time friends, look
Look at all the violence
And worse, all of the acceptance
I can't believe we let this
Be the world we let it be

We only get one chance to try
How do we envision it to be
When our vision is blurry
Our decisions are hurried
Our mistakes we try and justify
Our blindness makes me cry
Injustice hits us all hard
Take control of another
Then our shame is discovered
What happened to an eye for an eye
Don't you ever even wonder why
Their illusions always work
Their illusions are working
By creating confusion
Propaganda is an honest lie
Now everything can change overnight
Evolution in the way we think
Our souls are evolving
With every problem we solve
Work together to tell them goodbye

But we're running
Running out of time friends, look
Look at all the violence
And worse, all of the acceptance
I can't believe we let this
Be the world we let it be

So why let it continue
The lies that we all see through
Now common sense should tell you
We all have the chance to see
A world that we want to see
