lyrics

The older I live the less I wanna live old
The more I give the less I need your gold
The more I achieve the less I fit… in the mold
The more I forgive the less I can be controlled

The smarter I get the less I wanna be smart
Lest we forget, I just wanna do my part
The deader I’m set the harder on the heart
The less I regret, the more life is an art

I just wanna dream at the rhythm of us
But it would seem that my dreams turned to dust.

The calmer I feel the less I wanna be calm
Cause pain is real and we should all be the balm
In a world of steel with the threat of a bomb
C’mon let’s make a deal, and slap my palm

I just wanna dream at the rhythm of us
But it would seem that my dreams turned to dust.

The older I live the less I wanna live old
The more I give the less I need your gold
The more I achieve the less I fit… in the mold
The more I forgive the less I can be controlled
