Snap Out Of It

You were just a kid full of fire and dreams

But somewhere along the world split at the seams

No voices reached you not teachers not me

You chose your own road but it leads to misery

And every night I pray

That you'll find your way

Through the haze through the fight

Step into the light

Oh snap out of it wake up from this dream

This isn't the life that was meant to be seen

I'd give my soul to pull you free

Please snap out of it and come back to me

The streets took your laughter the drugs took your name

I don't even know if you're feeling the shame

We're all still here with arms open wide

But you've got to choose to turn the tide

And every night I pray

That you'll find your way

Through the haze through the fight

Step into the light

Oh snap out of it wake up from this dream

This isn't the life that was meant to be seen

I'd give my soul to pull you free

Please snap out of it and come back to me

And across the borderlines a shadow looms

A nation divided hearts consumed

Madmen leading the blind follow hate

If they don't wake up it'll be too late

The land of the brave is trembling with fear

Truth gets twisted and lies steer the gear

I see the cracks spreading under the weight

Can't you hear the warnings it's almost too late

And every night I pray

That we'll find our way

Through the chaos through the flames

Rise above the shame

Oh snap out of it wake up from this trance

There's still a chance to rebuild to advance

The dream's not gone it's just out of reach

Please snap out of it and hear freedom's speech

Two cries for help one heartache shared

A son and a nation so broken so scared

But hope's still burning a spark in the night

If we snap out of it we can make it right
