some call me a loser

some call me a cheater

some say im a selfish untalanted dreamer

cause all's i try to do is keep my dream alive

but its so hard when your working 9-5

ive never been one afraid to die

but im afraid to leave behind

the precious life that grows through the sands of time

cause now i got 2 daughters

and i know they need their father

to help them make it through all of the devious things that people do

casue every moment counts from the good times to bad

i dont have time to envy those that got things i never had

cause the one thing most important is the one we take for granted

and until your life is on that line i think its the way god had planned it

to open up your eyes and make you realize

that to some life is money

but whats money without life

cause all's i need is the air that i breathe

and my friends and family to believe in me

*as deep as the abyss where the waters run

as deep as the land of the rising sun

you know im down

and even when the odds are against us

it doesnt even matter

nothing else matters*

We bleed the same blood

we cry the same tears

we have the same fears

we pass the same years

we see the same stars

under the same skies

we pass the same time

we all live and die

cause friends and family wash thicker then blood

and if you never felt love then i feel for you

cuz lives pass above us in 747's

deceased dwell below us

before they go to heaven

deep like 7 leagues life intrigues intelligence

got no time for clutter youre late if theres hesitance

put your foot forward and there will be a helping hand

take a step back and youre stuck in the quick sand

ingesting toxins keeps us locked in a mental jail trip

2002 wheres your family at

--oh an i might fail

oh and i might succeed

whatever the outcome is

just keep your faith in me

just believe in me

and i will be there--

*as deep as the abyss where the waters run

as deep as the land of the rising sun

you know when im down

and even when the odds are against us

it doesnt even matter

nothing else matters*
