So easy to think the grass is greener/
I wish that I could see the beauty in every second that passes, don’t need sadness either/
Cos when I have a fever...or I feel under the weather/
I forget what it feels like to be better and at peace the/
Problem is I don’t notice just breathing comfortably/
Like life doesn’t mean enough to me/
And this seems utterly/
Detrimental to me enjoying the short time/
I was gifted on this planet before it absorbs my/
Carbon, to feed the finite cycle we call life/
We all die, it’s all right, just pour wine/
Your eyes are the tour guide of a thing of beauty/
So easy to get wrapped up in images and duty/
Most of what the government tells you is inaccurate/
Get a lungful of air before they start charging tax on it/
The chairman of Nestlé considers water a commodity/
Buys up natural springs in areas stricken with poverty/
So honestly I’d not be surprised with a charge on oxygen/
...How much does owning an atom of carbon cost again?/
The people in power will always work to fill their pockets up/
Even when we vote them in, so they can give us options, but/
Don’t play the game just be the change you want to see/
As long as you’re not hurting anyone, eff the economy/
Too often we look at others and think, "what’s wrong with me?"/
But if we’re all thinking the same thing, that’s just comedy//
(Chorus x2)
You want your grass to be as green as it can (I'll say)
You need the rain feeding your plants/ (I'll say)
We're giving every season a chance/ (I'll say)
Even when it's freezing, there's a breeze and it's damp//
(JND)
The turf might seem a richer shade of emerald there/
But before you make the switch well you better beware/
Can we all admit to thinking that our life is unfair?/
When there's doubt in the air, don't change your route or despair/
Cos it usually isn't, you should be using your wisdom/
Instead of fuelling the negative mood, forever pursuing a victim/
One clue's in the planning, the other is through some persistence/
Clever improving your vision, then you'll be moving the mission/ (eh?)
Not tryna say summat you won't know/
You've probably been through it with so-an-so/
Cos life's like a ride on a pogo, unwinding a yo-yo/
Sublime when it's going right, wrong and it's 'oh no!'/
Keep smiling cos while you're still breathing/
And while your heart's beating, the sun is gonna shine for you/
And that's cheesy but that's how I'm feeling/
The yin and yang's needed, rainy days don't make me blue//
(Chorus x2)
You want your grass to be as green as it can (I'll say)
You need the rain feeding your plants/ (I'll say)
We're giving every season a chance/ (I'll say)
Even when it's freezing, there's a breeze and it's damp//
(Addverse)
Well I've been living on the side of thinkin’ life is a grind/
I'm sick of the 9 to 5 digging of this grave in my mind/
I'm ready to flip back the switch and, reboot my hard-drive/
And activate the present like it's gift wrapped and hard-wired/
They tried to tell me that I can't escape the virus, it's inside us/
And if I break the code then I’d get fired, so I/
Did it anyway, made a corporate enemy/
And everyday I'm getting better letting off this energy/
I set it free, you can forget your methodology/
I think you'll find you're messing with my recipe and honestly/
I'd rather skip your policy, politics and office speak/
And feel the love cos the fear's attacking the honesty/
The fact alone that we are star dust and conscious of it/
Shines a light on what I see so I can spot the monsters on it/
Cos the matter is this, once an atom exists, it never disappears it stays in the mix/
So I’m gonna live forever if the ether permits/
I could be anything from weather to an elephant's hips/
It's one hell of a trip to think that anything is possible/
Elements repeat it's mathematically probable/
No matter what the obstacle, life still happens/
If the sun still shines then it lights up the patterns/
And it's intricately balanced while its spinning on its axis/
Amazingly placed in a space with no practice/ (it's life)//
(Chorus x2)
You want your grass to be as green as it can (I'll say)
You need the rain feeding your plants/ (I'll say)
We're giving every season a chance/ (I'll say)
Even when it's freezing, there's a breeze and it's damp//
