better way Ben Harper
i'm a living sunset
lightning in my bones
push me to the edge
but my will is stone
fools will be fools
and wise will be wise
but i will look this world
straight in the eyes
what good is a man
who won't take a stand
what good is a cynic
with no better plan
reality is sharp
it cuts at me like a knife
everyone i know~
is in the fight of their life
take your face out of your hands
and clear your eyes
you have a right to your dreams
and don't be denied
i believe in a better way
lightning in my bones
push me to the edge
but my will is stone
fools will be fools
and wise will be wise
but i will look this world
straight in the eyes
what good is a man
who won't take a stand
what good is a cynic
with no better plan
reality is sharp
it cuts at me like a knife
everyone i know~
is in the fight of their life
take your face out of your hands
and clear your eyes
you have a right to your dreams
and don't be denied
i believe in a better way

great poetry, I'm not even sure I was ever meant to read it, but I did enjoy it much.
