(Life is oh, so distant when we feel there's something missing)
If dreams are like a boat, in the deep end I'ma float
If I'm sleeping on my purpose, then I'm scheming when I'm woke
The secrets never told, never seen, and never shown
I free them when I rhyme and I breathe them when I flow
Frequently, I feel the need to teach them what I know
Maybe frequencies could speak soliloquies into their soul
Piece it into reason 'til it reaches where they go
Plant a seed inside their being, through the seasons it will grow (grow, grow)
Grow, but act on it
Cap on it or capitalize on it
Slack or stack, huh, fall or rise on it,
You can stay blind or you could keep your eyes on it
Dusk 'til dawn, days get long
Got to stay strong, we'll make it
Hush, stay calm, play this song
Hold you breath when the waves hit
Cause life is oh, so distant when we feel there's something missing
Come to realize it's already inside while we're waiting and wishing
Why don't we just get back to business?
Cause I don't why we're waiting until Christmas for the gift
Living in the now is key, this is all we got to be (aha)
In the present is where we are free
Living in the now is key, this is all we got to be (aha)
In the present is where we are free
Are free, yeah, are free
In the present is where we are free
Are free, are free
In the present is where we are free
Hey, time's still ticking, the clock stays tocking
Play the hand you're given, giving up is not an option
A glitch in the system picking at your conscience
I know the way we're living's getting sickening too often
So I'm space-bound on a greyhound
All the way down to the place to be
Where we hang out and just play around
It's a playground somewhere in the galaxy
We can keep it real
We can keep it real, no gimmick
No matter what the deal is we're all in it
Got to feel the love, no limit
We can keep it real
Yeah, we can keep it real, no limit
No matter what the deal is we're all in it
Got to give the love that keeps on giving
Cause life is oh, so distant when we feel there's something missing
Come to realize it's already inside while we're waiting and wishing
Why don't we just get back to business?
Cause I don't why we're waiting until Christmas for the gift
Living in the now is key, this is all we got to be (aha)
In the present is where we are free
Living in the now is key, this is all we got to be (aha)
In the present is where we are free
Are free, yeah, are free
In the present is where we are free
Are free, are free
In the present is where we are free
