Can We Pretend
Can we pretend
Can we extend
Can we not offend
Can we be flexible
Can we bend but never break
Can we stretch and breathe
Can we reach beyond ourselves to the sky
To the stars to Mars to Jupiter to Andromeda
To tomorrows tomorrow and what lies beyond
Through the darkness to the light of a brighter day
Can we be better
Can we do better
Can we please stop fucking up the world
Can we the one trick pony and old dog they say
Can't learn new tricks please learn a new one maybe two
If we're feeling frisky not too tipsy off the whiskey
Not in our own way talking shit
Being bitch ass ninjas on some ego trip
Can we search for answers
Can someone please find develop
Conjure up a fucking cure for cancer
Fuck Cancer
Can we not hold grudges
Can we not be vindictive
Can we not be vengeful
Can we please spread love
Can we please spread love
Can we please pursue happiness with reckless abandon
Can we extend a helping hand in every direction
To every person of every complexion
Can we make it and never fake it
Can we make it so strong
There's no way it could be mistaken
Can we prosper in times of adversity
Can the bottom line not have a dollar sign
Not have any type of monetary value
Not be what drives us to the brink of freedom or death
Can we learn to live in a world
That's not money over everything else
Can we live I mean really live
Can we communicate not perpetuate hate
Start over with a clean slate heal from the heart and headaches
And together aspire to be great
Can we rise up open our eyes up and redefine us
Can we remove the blinders
Can we see everything we're supposed to see
Can we be everything we're supposed to be
Can we roam unfettered and free
Through our greatest utopian fantasy
Can we make reality everything I thought it'd be
For more than just 10 seconds in my dreams
Can we stand the rain let the tears
Wash away the pain and find the strength
Within ourselves and each other to move forward again
Can we
I mean truly ask yourself can we
I truly hope so
Can we extend
Can we not offend
Can we be flexible
Can we bend but never break
Can we stretch and breathe
Can we reach beyond ourselves to the sky
To the stars to Mars to Jupiter to Andromeda
To tomorrows tomorrow and what lies beyond
Through the darkness to the light of a brighter day
Can we be better
Can we do better
Can we please stop fucking up the world
Can we the one trick pony and old dog they say
Can't learn new tricks please learn a new one maybe two
If we're feeling frisky not too tipsy off the whiskey
Not in our own way talking shit
Being bitch ass ninjas on some ego trip
Can we search for answers
Can someone please find develop
Conjure up a fucking cure for cancer
Fuck Cancer
Can we not hold grudges
Can we not be vindictive
Can we not be vengeful
Can we please spread love
Can we please spread love
Can we please pursue happiness with reckless abandon
Can we extend a helping hand in every direction

Can we make it and never fake it
Can we make it so strong
