Promonant - Open Your Eyes Lyrics

This is for all my homeboys lost in the storm

For wherever the carcass is, there will be eagles gathered together

What happened to us
We lost our faith in this time we spent
It's been a whole year already you know what time it is
You thought we was lost
Took a break the game is falling off
The major labels either corrupt or turned competely soft
That's why its hard for us to make a change
The publics got us feeding off of materialistic things
All I ever wanted was to hear my name
But nowadays it's getting easy to say about anything
I lost my cousin someone that i grew up with a year ago
Came home in a mental state his mama didnt know
Feelings to the streets and couldn't make his ends meet
So he felt his lil brothers and his mother had to eat
No father figure, problems start to roam inside a nigga
Nobody to look up to turns an angel to a sinner
I miss you to my heart you were the one that had it all
It's sad to know somebody took the fall

But tell me is it me they should listen to (when times get hard)
When is the glory of the worst taken (way to far)
The silent pressure of the lesser is (impressive for the feeling)
Now we waiting in the sky (with our hands to the ceiling)
Saying Amen! (the lord brought has me today)
To see my blessings in disguise come and (take me away)
This is your choice (open your eyes and feel the voice)

Lord forgive me for my rude awakening
I was angry at myself the devil has forsaken thee
And i know it sounds like i'm living so ungracefully
But basically i'm just a lonely man who has to eat his words blatantly
Patience wasn't on my side when the sun went down
I translated it will come to it's gone come right now
And everytime i get a glimpse of what it could've been
Shouldve been wouldve been if i was just as good as them
I knew it was with me all along but i never waited
I thought something instant would come first before i meditate it
Now i'm upset, only if i was just as restless as i am
I would be one step closer to thinking above the rim
Now I put myself aside
I'm not the perfect man alive
Lost my blood sweat and tears to this homicide
I might be next if they don't try to take another
Somebody tell me when can we live, to see this world together?

Tell me is it me they should listen to (when times get hard)
When is the glory of the worst taken (way to far)
The silent pressure of the lesser is (impressive for the feeling)
Now we waiting in the sky (with our hands to the ceiling)
Saying Amen! (the lord brought has me today)
To see my blessings in disguise come and (take me away)
This is your choice (open your eyes and feel the voice)

The world is losing
Talents being wasted on the fame
Where's the credibility standing to play the same game
A new generation just trying to maintain
What's the holy ghost doing out of range
We looking like we can't communicate face to face or stay in shape
All this dark chemistry without a means to escape
I let the bully speak his piece before he raises his hand
And turn back with all my pride still advanced
The game is now a circus tent for sideshows, and talentless dummies
Feel so insightful to the future yet the whole time bluffing
What's the word around town bet there were no discussions
The best to ever do it period, is out of the question
I know it's money to be made and success is getting paid
Dreams are worth more than money it's not the same if crime pays
So the message of today, is party and drinking
And all the morals in reality turn into gang banging
Is the woman of your dreams really woman of choice?
You wanna save that woman from something she's trained to ignore
The children learning from a man whose had his strikes all written
The more you teach em off a path the road of guidance is missing
As i separate my woes from my strengths, let's think about it
Hows the universe to look if we can't take the pain without it
Wanna change the game and run but I doubt it
In due time, cause the Lord is always listening to stay on your grind
Open Your Eyes

And tell me is it me...

Tell me is it me they should listen to (when times get hard)
When is the glory of the worst taken (way to far)
The silent pressure of the lesser is (impressive for the feeling)
Now we waiting in the sky (with our hands to the ceiling)
Saying Amen! (the lord brought has me today)
To see my blessings in disguise come and (take me away)
This is your choice (open your eyes and feel the voice)
