[bad word] AND PRIDE
 Panning for wisdom at the waters edge

Hours of sleep then hours on edge

Can’t tell your mother where you been that day
 Too scared [bad word] to your brother and say

I found some knowledge that you kept from me

Down at the river it came from the sea

I fished out wisdom that you tried to hide
 Hiding me from all the  and the pride

Can you say when it feels all wrong

Been trapped in your mind for far too long

Can you [bad word] the voice inside
 Screaming at you that your life’s a lie

Scream your name till you fly to fame

Tell those [bad word] that you’re not the same

As every other man and woman you know,
 Say my life, my mind, my show

Can you say when it feels all wrong
 Trapped in your mind for far too long
 Can you believe the voice inside
 Screaming at you that life’s a lie

Can you [bad word] in the rhythm of your heart
 When it beats out of time as you play your part
 Can you take what you’re told to be [bad word]  If it’s juxtaposition to you

(4x round)

It’s mine
 It’s my mind
 I know me
 I [bad word] me
 I know
 It’s my show

(2 x round)

Panning for wisdom at the waters edge
 Too much sleep and hours on edge
 Can’t tell your mother where you’ve been that day
 Too scared [bad word] to your brother and say

I found some knowledge that you kept from me
 Down at the river it came from the sea
 I fished out wisdom that you tried to hide
 Keeping me from all that  and pride

(2x round)

(It’s mine)
 Can you say when it feels all wrong
 (It’s my mind)
 Trapped in your mind for far too long

(I know it’s my show)
 Can you believe the voice inside
 Screaming at you that life’s a lie

Can you [bad word] in the rhythm of your heart
 When it beats out of time as you play your part
 Can you take what you’re told to be [bad word]  If it’s juxtaposition to you

(4x round)

It’s mine
 It’s my mind
 I know me
 I [bad word] me
 I know
 It’s my show
