Born Lyrics

[Verse 1] Early and often, I was often on Another plane, or terrain, or I created a zone. And in my new home, I would often roam… Roam alone in a world that I was probably on. I let it be known, that the Earth was my home, Even though they looked at me like I was horribly wrong. My origin never changed, so my answer stayed the same. After we exchanged names… I’m probably gone. I often thought that they were errantly drawn Suckered into playing games that could never be won. I could never be one. So I chose to paint a path and live a life that has yet to be born. A depiction of a world that has yet to be drawn. Though I know it’s in the belly and its ready to come. If you can feel it… ball up your fingers, tuck in your thumbs. Raise up you hand and say… We will no longer run!

[Chorus] I just want you to see, You are already free. You’re searching for something outside ya’ It’s in you, you already got it.

You can have anything. However you wanted it to be. Whatever you want it to be. It can be.

[Version 2] I saw the boxes that they tried to box me in But the problem was my head just didn’t fit it Not to mention… they didn’t have my dimensions I was never programmed to just blindly listen. I had to question. Had to seek some lessons That scarred me a lot but added more to my progression. I never got in tune with a system not open to change That’s why I’m often missing. I on a mission to share a vision Of a life with no chains. No slaves in the picture. With spoken word, a song or a whisper I can show you a world where there is no division. Everyone is different. Everyone is gifted. Pull up a chair. Let’s Discuss. Begin a discussion of a new be-ing. I know you can feel it. Tag… “we it!”

[[Chorus]]

[Verse 3] I saw red octagons and heard what they were saying. A lotta lotta “cant’s” tucked in-between some “can’s.” I guess I never, ever became a fan Of limitations for me, that were set by them. I guess that’s also why I never raised my hand. Can’t say that I agree with how education is ran. I got struck by lightening. Then tried to enlighten them. They say I lost my bolts. Yeah, I never screwed them in. Let’s build a Never Never Land. Hold Up! Let’s make a better, better plan! I guess I’m just another Peter Pan Asking you to take off and never ever land again.

Looking for a collage of footage from the occupy movement for the video. If anyone can create a slide show to the music... That would rock!
