Reflections

You must have made some money,
Or you must have found some peace ..
But now you're just angry,
Coz everything seems to decrease ..

You must have shot to fame,
You must have fallen in love ..
You think you've lost the game,
Maybe coz you've lost all of the above ..

Do you want to be a ship without an anchor ?
Do you want to be a question without an answer ?
Don't you want to just get to the next chapter ?
You've got to stop looking at the rear view mirror ..

Look at the road ahead,
Move into a higher gear ..
Just put the past to bed,
But stop for some chilled beer ..

If you come across a fork,
It might look a little obscure ..
But just feel the torque,
Coz there's always a detour ..

Do you want to be a bird with just one feather ?
Don't you want to be the knight with a world to conquer ?
Do you really think you've got no future ?
You've got to stop looking at the rear view mirror ..

Oh ma !

Chopping up everything that looks green,
Leaving us only with memories of what we had seen,
Walking this world like a pirate crew,
Oh mother, what have they done to you ?

Listening to the commands of a mad priest,
And sever heads of many a beast,
Now, the only place to see them is at a zoo,
Oh mother, what are they doing to you ?

These sore eyes miss the sight of your rich brown skin,
Took it for granted, and I used to break into a grin,
From this concrete jungle I wish I could see through,
Oh mother, what have we done to you ?

The sweet milk from you has become so hard to taste,
Even your tears, are all blocked by plastic waste,
How long do we sit and hang our head in rue ?
Oh mother, what are we doing to you ?
