Pay attention to the things that you can’t change
Let them rule your thoughts, let them all prevail
Concentrate on where you messed up in the past
Do your best to celebrate your failures
Highlight your mistakes, put them on top
Keep on doin’ everything to blame yourself
Livin’ your life, in retrospective
Don’t believe that everything that counts is now
Don’t believe that everything that counts is now
Don’t allow yourself to be satisfied
Until all your requirements are fulfilled
Don’t allow yourself to feel happiness
Until you achieved all your objectives
Make everything, dependant on the
Accurate demands you set for your life
Livin’ your life, in total control
Don’t believe that everything that counts is now
Now you have the power to change
All the possibilities in range
Now is the opportunity
To be what you wanna be
To see what you wanna see
Now
Now you have the power to change
Now is what you need to rearrange
Now is the opportunity
To be what you wanna be
To see what you wanna see
Stay compromised
Stay how they want you to be
Stay desensitized
Stay how they told you to be
Stick to your paradigm
Make sure that you stay in line
Pretend that you feel all right
Assure you’re not satisfied
Compromise yourself with regulation
To give you that illusive sensation
Compromise yourself with obsession
To keep you away from a broader impression
Stick to your paradigm
Make sure that you stay in line
Pretend that you feel all right
Assure you’re not satisfied
But now
Now you have the power to change
All the possibilities in range
Now is the opportunity
To be what you wanna be
To see what you wanna see
Now
Now you have the power to change
Now is what you need to rearrange
Now is the opportunity
To be what you wanna be
To see what you wanna see
Pay attention to the things that you can change
Let them rule your thoughts, let them all prevail
Remain at ease despite you mess up properly
Do your best to cherish your failures
Highlight what it takes, and put it on top
Keep on doin’ all the things you love in life
Give’em a place, you got what it takes
Do believe that everything that counts is
Let it out let it out
It won’t get any better if you swallow it down
Still and hypocritical
Grey so unremarkable
No good if you don’t let no light on it no
Still and hypocritical
Grey so unremarkable
Don’t underestimate the power that can grow
In a volcano
Let it out when you feel the anger rising
It won’t get better if you keep repressing
Let it out after a time finding your desire
Don’t sit on it like on a bomb that is on fire
Let it out let it out
It won’t get any better if you swallow it down
What what goes up mu-must come down
Not my idea the natural law
So all your anger's better out
Before it hurts the wrong one
What gets so tense must been released
What’s under pressure will lift the seal
A volcano so calm and big
Sooner or later it just spits
Don’t wanna hush when something's wrong
And just keep playing happy songs
There's nothing wrong with speaking up
As long as we're not giving up
Not giving up to fight for love
The love that comes from up above
Don’t let the anger grow inside
Instead speak up for love to rise
