Truth Inside

I coughed in the air of the wildfire
I bled from my mouth it was my desire
I tossed my lighter than I realized
There's no more pain I was dead inside
They say the pen mighty than the sword
I dropped my gun and then shot these words
The first of us to victimize
There's no more truth all that's left is lies
I realized that there was only me
When I searched to find all my enemies
No democracies in plutocracies
We elect ourselves into slavery
I dropped a bomb over Vietnam
'Cause the tax I payed pulled uranium
From the ground to be altered chemistry
Place it in the sky hurt us chemically
When I tried to eat all my teeth fell out
Now we're in the streets with our brains blown out
So much heat in a mushroom cloud
So much heat coming out my mouth
I found the peace that I was always missing
But my ego beat him into blind submission
Kissed the wound of a broken sky
She shed her tears and she asked me why she said

Open your eyes see me bleed
Open your eyes believe me please
Open your eyes and bleed with me
Open your eyes believe me please
Open your eyes and be with me
Open your eyes believe me please
Use your mind
Just use your mind
Just use your mind and you will find
The truth inside
That truth inside that people hide
Where we reside
That truth inside that we're denied
That truth inside
That truth inside you

Are you feeling alive in the place u reside (Yeah)
Are you using your mind in the way it's designed (I think so)
Are we feeling the vibes of our movement in time (Uh-huh)
Are we missing the views of the mountains inside
Are you feeling alive in the place you reside
Are you feeling so alive lose your mind
Take a ride and feel alive
In the place of music
Nothing truer than this don't forget
We continue through it
People don't confuse it with the mask that you hold
Find your soul in a body is a temple to hold you
I design mine with tattoos
We fuse with the flesh and the mind
Choose what we want to define as the purpose of self
Truth for the victims of crime
Losing our center to find the greed and the wealth
Los templos you see out in Belize
They were designed cosmically
Might take a trip to visit and see
Si los Niños Santos me llevan alli
Like the stars in the night so far
My ancestors are jaguars
They speak to me in these bars
I refuse to just worship cars
Are you feeling alive in the place you reside
Are you using your mind in the way it's designed
Are we missing the views of the mountains inside
Are we using the mind in the way it's designed

Closed my eyes couldn't understand
What's the cost of life in a broken man
He walks the land with no food to eat
Crying for the ghost of a coral reef
Fake leaders eat while the children suffer
500 years of the rape and plunder
Six feet under I realized
I can touch the sky with my peace of mind
I caught a sight of the blind mans eyes
My heart beats bright in the darkest nights
Then the gunshots rang and the bullets hit us
If you could only see what's the cost of vision
The truth speaks loud if you choose to listen
The truth speaks out if you choose to listen
The truth speaks now if you choose to listen
The truth speaks out if you choose to listen

Open your eyes believe me please
Open your eyes and be with me
Open your eyes believe me please
Open your eyes and bleed with me
Open your eyes and be with me
Open your eyes and see me bleed
Use your mind
