J. Ikenna - IX [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I feel like...
The World's Ours...
'Til we stop believing and just start grieving
Weeping, searching for reasons to why the coldest of seasons
Are seeming to come upon us
While ignoring something so wondrous:
Mother Nature, and the nature of ourselves
But instead of finishing the story, we just throw it to the shelves
Never realizing the wealth held deep within our minds
We are inclined to realign
Our essence with another
And claim that they are better
Or maybe that's just the half of us
And the other half have life planned out so miraculous
"Take the yellow brick road from point A to B
Sit back, wait patiently, for your stars to line up so you can take off to C."
Now is that he or she?
Regardlessly
Pray that you sail your soul, and do not sell your soul
Never let another dictate how to grow old
And if you want to see it grow, do not let your dreams go
Cause the moment it's released to the abyss
Is the exact moment that you miss a piece of bliss
Find a list of people who took their aspirations to a higher destination
Tell me if it competes with the quantity of lamentations still handed out
Placed upon tombstones of graveyards
Spanning out
Many miles
All the while
I wonder what it'd be like if we could turn time back?
"What happens to a dream deferred?"
Hope my life doesn't answer that
See, I believe that when you believe in your dream, your goal, your aspirations, whatever you want to call it
You believe in yourself
But then again
I am just a boy in the body of a man
Who can admit his flaws and yet fails to understand
Hours can't be lengthened
Minutes can't shortened
Every second should be cherished as a moment in your mind
And these are just the thoughts...
Of A Moment In My Mind
