Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Take it away
Take it away from
Take it away from the people in the streets
[Verse 2]
Give it away
Give it away to
Give it away to the others that you meet
[Verse 3]
History becomes what we make it
Something doesn't fit the bill, we fake it
If you really want something, you take it
Kindness becomes something we've shaken
[Verse 4]
For the people that have, they know what they've gained
Looking for sun, but it only burns
In the heat of the day I wash it away
Gotta find a way to make it better
In the dead of the night searching for fame
In the glitz and the light the ugly remains
Looking for sun, standing in rain
Find a way to make a real change
[Verse 5]
Here's to we will be what we'll make it
Something doesn't fit the bill, we're not gonna fake it
If we really need something, know how to take it
Honesty won't be something we shake
[Verse 6]
Take it away
Take it away from
Take it away from the people in the street
Give it away
Give it away to
Give it away to the others that you meet
[Verse 7]
For the people that have, they know what they've gained
Looking for sun but it only rains
In the heat of the day I washed it away
Gotta find a way to make it better
In the dead of the night, searching for fame
In the glitz and the light, the ugly remains
Looking for sun, standing in rain
Find a way to make a real change
[Verse 8]
I can see
The sun
