David Alan Roberts - Seeking to Own Lyrics

It's morning and the race is now on
Going nowhere so fast; just cruising along
Oblivious to all that I do
And what I will have when it's all through
I'll keep myself from having to see
The utter despair of all of my greed
Now, everything that I have been shown
Has made me believe life is seeking to own
I set my eyes on the ascent
Climbing the hill on which I've been sent
But the pressure just seems to increase
The higher I go the less I find peace
I'll keep myself from having to see
The utter despair of all of my greed
Now, everything that I have been shown
Has made me believe life is seeking to own
Sometimes I hear a voice that comes from deep inside
It's pushing me to not comply
I have a feeling that nothing is what it seems
And I'm living the wrong dream
An ache within starts to be felt
But my defenses are firm, I'll never look to myself
Something else is aways to blame
'Cause I never think it could be my own aim
I'll keep myself from having to see
The utter despair of all of my greed
Now, everything that I have been shown
Has made me believe life is seeking to own
