Rising from the dead and choosing light instead

But an image of darkness still rents space in my head

I need roses, maybe to lay in a rose bedBut the issue is perspective so give me some rose specks

A risen perspective, for fiery sword lessons

Approaching a guarded paradise hoping to be accepted

It′s my resting place, from the heavy burdens of yesterday

I wanna rid of imbalance, adjust the weights

And lighten the flesh experience, brighten for best appearance

With vision that's sharp and clear but refined to let the spirit reflect

I′m heavy spirited, needing my debt to clear and the death of my pride is near

And yes I'm a little fearful but still I'm letting go

Stepping into the flow, with the hopes of being lifted out of residual lows

And existing beyond the madness of knowledge that equals sadness

Into the light of day where the heart can be filled with gladness

No worry about the happiness being snatched away

Secure in knowing that heaven has got my back today

So I can focus all my strength on yet another goal

The only shade I wanna witness is the color rose

Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses

Let me slide em′ on

Ah, that feels better

With just the right shade to paint a perception of pleasure

And just the right prescription to rid cognitive dissonance

And still see the distance from where you are to where you wish to be

To make the vision clear and take away the mystery

To focus on the future make the haters history like

Seeing the brightness of the sun without it blinding you

Please block out the violence like ultra-violet refine my view

Take away the stigmas, astigmatisms

The things that misdirect my focus, distort my vision

A lense coated with bliss to coexist without division

Far-sighted correction for projection with precision

I′m foreseeing my victory, changing my frame of mind

Led by my convictions, no blind leading the blind

No wool over my eyes, I can see past the veil

Retrieving and transmuting my heaven out of the hell

Complexities vexed my soul now I'm solo, no contacts

No more specks in my eyes and now all I can see is facts

And its boosting my performance, even reforming my ways

Repainting all my shadows with these rose colored shades

Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses

Cover my ears, open my eyes

Give me the truth and leave out the lies

Show me a world where love is the way

Replace these dark shades and give me, give me rose

Cause life as I know has been faded

Sunlight shining in shady places

Out with the darkness, in with the joy

Life′s not for suffering its made to enjoy

Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses

Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses

Give me, give me, rose

Balance my reality when all I see is darkness

Rose colored glasses

Let my eyes see love cause most of what I hear is heart less

Rose colored glasses

Balance my reality when all I see is darkness

Rose colored glasses

Let my eyes see love cause most of what I hear is heartless

Rose colored glasses

Give me, give me rose
