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*
