Regroup - Intellectual

If you look at the world with an objective eye

Then it's obvious that things have gone all wrong in the world

And you can't help but ask yourself

Is there anything that I can do to ease the suffering and pain

Or will my voice get drowned out by all the noise

Made by those who would profit from

The peddling of comfortability (read: apathy)?

They paint pictures by numbers of a desperate lunatic fringe

And so I know I must regroup

And learn to live the words I speak so easily

It's up to me

It is up to me

Up to me

It is up to me to clean up my own backyard

To change myself no matter how hard I resist my own morality

It's up to me to set examples for myself

And walk a path leaving the footsteps there

As some kind of primitive map for you to clearly see

Not as a template but as a sample

Know that you don't have to be true

To the ways that you were always taught were right

And the only way

And you're not insane if you stop to take a look

The world will wait until you see more clearly

It's up to me

It is up to me

Up to me

It is up to me to see what's in front of me

With as little prejudice and greed as I can manage right now

It is up to me to believe my eyes

And not the iridescent lies for sale

The ones it's easier to believe

Up to me

It is up to me

It is
