The Living Wells - The Flow lyrics

[Verse 1: Moshe Friedman] Everybody wanna know why I had to fly One day that July said my last goodbye I could say a few words if you're asking why Kind of hard to explain but I'll have to try Had some questions, couldn't mask the lie Answers left me unsatisfied Like why do the good kids have to die? And can I really prove there's some kind of afterlife? You listen to my questions, you had the same ones You wanna know where we're heading, and where we came from But you forgot ‘em in the daily grind of new distractions Mine were too important so I didn't have the same reaction Knew I could not wait ‘till it was too late before that feeling's gone So I spent that night trying to book that flight and find the next plane I'm leaving on See you and I both wanna climb that ladder of success, that's agreed upon The only difference is I wanna know which wall that ladder is leaning on [Chorus: Rick Fox] I know, I know I know you must be saying This life is not a game, why you still playing? But I gotta be riding in my highs, laughing in my lows I just can't stop can't stop the flow [Verse 2: Moshe Friedman] Never mind what they might say You gotta go find your right way Some choices might take you sideways But at least you can say that you tried, hey! My friends treated me in mean ways Laughing at each in-between phase From rap music then to frat student On to half-Buddhist who sits writing screenplays But at each stage, never held it there Reflected and became more self aware Cuz' I couldn't sit around with some helpless stare Choose your own direction, nobody will tell you where to go They all called me a silly joker A faker trying to be a poser But I knew that only change could bring me closer To greatness, never settling for mediocre [Chorus] [Verse 3: Moshe Friedman] Not a thing in this world that remains at rest You're either changing more or you're changing less I'm gonna speak my mind put my brain to breath If you're afraid of change then you're afraid of d**h Lost some friends, made some new ones The ones I lost weren't really the true ones And those I've encountered along the way Let me tell you what I want to say Mom and Dad, I did not reject you My friends back home yeah I still respect you Will I change your mind? I don't expect to But I'll hold the mirror up to reflect to So be yourself, disown the norm Challenge the status and don't conform Accept the change that might sever your track Then keep on moving and never look back
