More Than This |
| I know there’s got to be more than this |
| In these boxy apartments and offices |
| Scrambling to pay the bills and the mortgages |
| Doesn’t seem to be as deep as the story gets |
| Posing, posting up all our performances |
| Turn our loved ones into a audience |
| For our political cause and accomplishments |
| Whatever make 'em like, share, and applaud for us |
| That’s all we trust |
| But there’s more than this, little one-inch box |
| That we’re forced to fit to get a portrait |
| There’s got to be a lot more but I’m lazy sometimes |
| I don’t want to explore, if I’m feeling outta sorts |
| I shop some more, sometimes I forgot |
| What I bought before it even arrives at my door |
| They don’t knock no more, I mean my friends it’s just me |
| And this cardboard, I can’t see my garage floor |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| Answering a call from inside my soul |
| This can’t be all there is |
| But right now this is all I know |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| Answering a call from inside my soul |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| Prettiest people do the ugliest things |
| The type of jewel you spit before becoming a king |
| A lotta time the poor dream of getting rich |
| Imagining the joy of expensive shit, but it’s a trip |
| 'Cause before we had togetherness |
| And we were just forced to make the best of it |
| But when we get more, we forget all this |
| And our hearts grow sore with the emptiness |
| We used to think we never had enough |
| Took a trip and got bitten by the travel bug |
| Dip our toes in the ocean, soak the magic up |
| Till finally got bored and strayed away |
| From the places that they make for the tourists to the villages |
| It’s like welcome to the world and how real it is |
| People given from their spirit what the feeling is |
| I see myself and remember just what living is, what a privilege |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| Answering a call from inside my soul |
| This can’t be all there is |
| But right now this is all I know |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| Answering a call from inside my soul |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
| There’s gotta be more than this |
