Your mind may sell you out But your heart never will Your mind may sell you out But your heart never will It never will It never will It never will It never will Your mind may sell you out But your heart never will Your mind may sell you out But your heart never will It never will It never will It never will It never will Talking to you in riddles All the time Even when you feel alone It’ll never leave your side It never will It never will It never will It never will Your mind may sell you out But your heart never will

V1When there’s something burning in your heart Something that you know will help you play your part Write it down Write it down It’s a simple little exercise It makes the difference people see it in your eyes Write it down Write it down What is it that you wanna do? Gives you purpose something that defines you? Write it down If it’s on paper Then you have a chance To be more than just a victim of circumstance Write it down What I found out from experience Was not to follow just what I was told made sense Write it down Write it down Our best achievements always came to be As a result of someone brave who dared to dream Write it down Write it down What is it that you wanna do? Gives you purpose something that defines you? Write it down If it’s on paper Then you have a chance To be more than just a victim of circumstance Write it down Every idea you have is a gift That’s designed to help us lift Our spirits ever higher to The joy waiting for me and you When intuition makes a sound That’s your cue to write it down The future isn’t far away So write it now What is it that you wanna do? Gives you purpose something that defines you? Write it down Write it down If it’s on paper Then you have a chance To be more than just a victim of circumstance Write it down Write it down

Repetition 03:28
No direction no intent No idea of the time I spent Just going over same old ground Giving me pains in my head No way of knowing what to do It’s obvious but I can’t cut through All the confusion that I make Where am I going? Repetition Repetition Of a pattern That drains my energy From the outside I look fine Composed and walking a straight line I couldn’t be more opposite If I tried I never have been one to ask For help and I’m going nowhere fast Oh hell I just woke up and saw The mess I made of everything Repetition Repetition Of a pattern That drains my energy "If you repeat a way of thinking enough times it becomes imprinted in your subconscious mind, re-wired in the brain & it becomes a habit, carried out on your behalf without the need to think about it. The problem is that the mind does not distinguish between what you call 'Good' or 'Bad' and so will create habits you do not want unless you apply the discipline of choosing your thoughts: The thoughts you want to create the life you want. I suggest you choose the thoughts that make you feel good and repeat them, repeat them, repeat them!" Repetition Repetition Repetition Repetition Well that was me sometime ago And I still come and I still go Unfocused not entirely sure Of what I’m doing But now the difference is faith In my ability to create And not relying just on fate I do believe I have a case Repetition Repetition Repetition Of a new philosophy

Heart speaks loud and clear But you still question if its true A statement like "I can't" Will have power over you For once in your life Put doubts aside And throw away the oars You will find the current's destination is The same as yours Everything you ever did Or heard or saw is stored Good or bad they play their part Your heart never gets bored For once in your life Put doubts aside And throw away the oars You will find the current's destination is The same as yours Let go of control It doesn't have to be complicated The answer could be as simple As a helping hand For Once in your life (repeat)

Let me tell you a story That happened to so many before Everyone has a tale to tell About the time They stopped three feet from gold Just when you are out of breath Just think of what you still have left Instead of backing down and giving in Don’t lose faith and never fear The reason you have should be clear If it’s in your heart Something’s gotta give Everything is subject to your projection What I mean by that is your beliefs About circumstances of a situation Determining the end results you see Every time you feel the need To turn around and concede You’re likely to be closer than you think Don’t justify resigning to You know it isn’t good for you Don’t give up ‘cause Something's gotta give Many times in history. All was lost or so it seemed But sprit didn’t break. It’s all that it takes A strong desire backed by faith. Will give you inspiration On action you must take. That’s how breakthroughs are made And Something’s gotta give. Gotta give. Gotta give. Something’s gotta give Something’s gotta give. Gotta give. Gotta give. Something’s gotta give
