Featuring Eric Burton
[Verse 1: Lavell Jones]
Perfection is a state of mind
We're searching for a better day
Or we need a getaway car so we can get away, far
Cause isn't it bizarre
All I need is my piano and guitar, maybe cigar
Mayne, I'll be finer than I ever was
You can't doubt you gotta trust
People do believe in us
Well tell me what's the reason cause I was feeling down and out
What’s my future all about?
How my life gonna turn out?
The thoughts of a struggling musician
Tryna' place my contribution in this world of pollution
This world of mass confusion
This world of all illusion
Mayne, but I'm gonna give my everything
I know you feel like you are searching for your everything
I know you feeling like, is he gonna care again
Girl I know you searching for that wedding ring
Or something just to feel complete
Or something just to help you sleep
I know you feeling like the devil’s really on the creep
I know you feel, I know we feel like we are searching, now sing
[Hook: Eric Burton]
I've been waiting for the day
Want some light to shine my way
Been knocked down but I'm okay
I'm standing up again just to run
(He keep runnin', she keep runnin’,
He keep runnin', we, so we runnin', but we never runnin' away from the light).
[Verse 2: Lavell Jones]
Pushing limits, breaking standards, tryna' climb the rope
How did we, get so far, we used to be so close
Clenching on, don't let go, hold on to that hope
Praying for the globe, will we get a second shot at life? Nope
So better live it all today
Why you stop? Go all the way
It’s very true though it sounds so cliché,
My homie or hombre, espanol or ingles
Gotta do your thing mayne
And you can't please everyone man you'll find yourself in trouble
And how you enjoy success man if you ain't had to struggle
You say you wanna move that weight but do you got that muscle?
My homie you just stay humble
Somebody out there, they love you and really think the whole world of you
And me, I'll never judge you, I was you.
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Lavell Jones]
Runnin', I run faster
Runnin', for the green pasture
Freedom, and laughter
Turn the page, a new chapter
Slaves, to masters
Searching, find answers
Know, what you after
Go get, what you after
You after things watch out for your soul
See wisdom is much better than diamonds and gold
You, bearing a lot go take off a load
And we, decoding secrets keep that on the low
But keep this on the high
Be happy to be living not buried alive
I, know there’s some feelings you just can't describe
But, go find the answers they lie with inside, you.
[Hook]
And I've been searching for it too
I want some light to shine
I’ve been knocked down too,
But, I’m standing up again just to run
