When ordinary people do extraordinary things
Reach up high, open heart and the hope that it brings
If you sit wait and wonder from a lull to a sting
Comes the sorrow and the pity of unsatisfied dreams
Stars and stripes = the heroes
Underdogs = the zeros
Open heart = battleships
Fighting for the weirdos
Killing dreams = war crimes
Living fear = kills time
Patience is a virtue, unfortunate I lost mine
De la soul fire
The eye of the storm
It's where boys become men and true freedom belongs
Quick fall
Easy fix
Illusions and magic tricks
Tried all the games you like
You won't sink my battleship
I can tell you why the caged bird sings
Anyone and everyone
That's the way that amma loves
I can tell you why the caged bird sings
Anyone and everyone
That's the way that I'm going to love
Burn the fire plant the seed
Free the heart kill the need
Open wound and let it bleed
I saw the truth and it set me free
Lived the pain felt the burn
Time will tell lessons learned
Time will tell, time will tell
And it's the stars in your eyes it's the songs that we sing
The unknown of tomorrow and the hope that it brings
In the darkness of night when it's just you and me
With our dreams of tomorrow of a neon city
There's a light at the end of the tunnel, they say
For the first time in years I can see it today
In the stars in your eyes
In the songs that we sing
The unknown of tomorrow and the hope that it brings
Open heart = battleship
You won't sink my battleship
You won't
You won't sink my battleship
