lyrics

Cise Star:

(Verse 1)
Life is like a man born blind buying jewelry;
Finding the best things seeing the tomfoolery;
Knowing the best piece by the feel of the texture;
Feelin' if the love radiates from the mess ups.
It’s the flaws that tell us what’s going on;
Makes us who we are from vagabond to swan.
Yes, we are alone, but together we are strong.
So hold me by the arm together we form God.
Filling in the gaps and cracks with ambiance,
With trepidation major, maybe we belong
Separated apart, but then where do we start
Unless we write the checks and pay off the cost?
Yes I am Aurelius so take me to the stars.
Yes I am analogous to a monuments fall;
Harbinger of change that will raise the alarm;
Strange alien psalm that’s in-tune with a cause.

(Chorus)
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.

(Verse 2)
Is it Danger? No. But the fear of the road;
The unseen dreams and schemes to the great unknown.
My seeds are sown. Hopefully the knowledge will grow.
I put it in prose; a scripture of a personal woe.
Description of my elevation, realization alone,
Aiding my transformation to a man that atones, renewed.
Hit the reset button and move.
Try to do better forever baby do what you do.
Follow your truth, maintain self, and resume.
Keep it thorough or the hurdles bring you down to your doom.
Arise!
Call me Lazarus, a phoenix alive, restored to my inner strength only the calm survive. And so,
Call me Lazarus, a phoenix alive, restored to my inner strength only the calm survive. And so,
Radiated to the highest and glowed; raising zeniths, stay believin' gotta prove and show.

(Chorus)
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.

(Bridge)
And we go, and we go, and we go, and we go,
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
And we go, and we go, and we go, and we go,
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.

(Verse 3)
Seeing the greater; focus my light into a laser;
Burning through the refuse to obtain the major.
Moving it through, marking my path with nothing to lose,
But maybe losing myself so what am I to do?
Making decisions so I could remain living hindsight;
My vision put it to the paper, written
On course and making sure my love is on board.
Encore on stage, we always want more.
Gladly, we give away ourselves to the sadness, tragic,
And wonder why the children are so at risk.
Trying to mask it, but it’s thin plastic
Peeling at the edges embedded into the scratches.
Nick the surface so we can stop the circus.
Short circuit the workings take it back to greater purpose.
Nick the surface so we can stop the circus.
Short circuit the workings take it back to greater purpose.

(Chorus)
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.
Stand our own two what are we gon’ do?
A higher purpose, searches, guide our way through.
A light in the attic somebody lightin' the fuse.
Please don’t be confused ‘cause up we gonna move.
