SUCCESS:

IVE BEEN ON THESE STREETS SO LONG BEGGING FOR MONEY FOR A DOLLAR TO EAT. NOW YOU WANT ME TO JOIN SOCIETY. I DONT THINK I CAN CAUSE I DONT KNOW REAL FROM REALITY. I MOVE JUST A LITTLE TO SLOW. I DONT THINK THIS FAST PACE WORLD IS READY FOR THE TRUTH.

CHORUS: HOW DO YOU MEASURE SUCCESS. WHEN YOU BASE IT ON ALL THESE MATERIAL THINGS. EVER WONDER WHY THE WORLDS A MESS. WHEN ALL THE IMPORTANT THINGS ARE FADING.

VERSE: WHATS SO WRONG ABOUT SAYING HELLO. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THANK YOU, YES AND PLEASE? WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO WHEN YOU BORROWED A CUP OF SUGAR, FROM YOUR NEIGHBOR AND THEN RETURNED IT BACK. REMEMBER WHEN A PERSONS WORD MEANT SOMETHING, NOW FROM SO MUCH ABUSE IT MEANS NOTHING.

CHORUS:

VERSE: DO YOU LIKE THE AIR THAT YOU BREATH. DO YOU LIKE THE TREES THAT GROW AND THE BIRDS THAT SING, OR DO YOU LIKE THE WAY THE CHEMICALS STING YOUR EYES. HOW ABOUT ALL THE CEMENT, DUST AND CRIME. LET THE WIND BLOW ACROSS THIS LAND AND SWEEP IT CLEAN. OR ARE WE BACK TO THE SAME OLD LIES.

CHORUS X2
