I'm allowed to say what I wanna,
and I'm about to speak my truest thoughts.
I'm allowed to be what I wanna,
and I'm about to be what you could not.
No one gonna slow me down,
I'm here and breathin,
tuned in to the subtle sound
of truth and freedom.
This is a cause worth fighting and dying for.
No stopping the water flow once it's full bore.
You can tie my hands in chains,
but you can't change the molecules in my veins.
I'm allowed to say what I wanna,
and I'm about to speak my truest thoughts.
I'm allowed to be what I wanna,
and I'm about to be what you could not.
It's overflowing,
it's bursting at the seams.
The need is growing,
we'll be what we wanna be.
I'm allowed to say what I wanna,
and I'm about to speak my truest thoughts.
I'm allowed to be what I wanna,
and I'm about to be what you could not.

Hollow

Close your eyes to the war, swallow,
fan the flames till the core is hollow.
Always something to learn and you will,
but when the take away burns it kills.
Close your ears to the sounds ringin.
What was lost can be found singin.
If a shadow needs light to live
then there's something inside to give.
Hollow...
To give yourself to something that you can't see,
forgive the doubts of silent surrendering,
to love and trust the beauty in everything
will dig you out of messes that you can't clean.
I love you and wish you well,
you'll be fine, I can tell.
You're gonna get out of this
hollowed shell prison cell.
Everyone everywhere
has got some things they don't share.
Everything is gonna be
what we know they ought to be.
I know you know it comes and goes in waves.
I feel the pain to live like we have no names.
I know you know the struggle's a passing phase.
I feel the pain to live like we have no names.

Maybe its time to open your mind
to outside thoughts without fear what you'll find.
Would you run if you can't look back
when sure as we bleed we've got mouths to feed?
In the hole where your heart went black
I'm planting a seed that maybe its time
to open your eyes, relinquish control
of the nasty thoughts and the troubles you know.
You don't cry but you suck your thumb
and hide under sheets, trading sweat for sleep.
When everyone's got a broken nose
and caves in defeat maybe it's time
to open your mind.
Would you run if you can't look back
when sure as we bleed we've got mouths to feed?
In the hole where your heart went black
I'm planting a seed that maybe its time
to open your mind,
get up, dig in, good luck.
See what you'll find,
get up, dig in, good luck.
Open your mind,
get up, dig in, good luck.
See what you'll find,
get up, dig in, good luck.

When you look at the stars the light in your eyes
could be stars being born or stars that have died,
a glimpse of the past traveling far
through the vastness of space just to be where you are
and remind you our place in the scheme of it all.
When you're feeling the weight or down from a fall
lay on the ground, stare at the sky,
take what's holding you back, and into the night
let it go so you can find
an open road and peace of mind.
Let it go so you can find
an open road and peace of mind...
