I open my shades to my window I see crime, crime of the mind I don't understand why So a prayer for guidance I try Lord please give me strength to find what is right What's right in these times? I need to be strong to know what's going on To know what's going on I got to stay real strong To know what's going on What's going on? Yea, la, la, la, la, la… I try to figure out where I fit in But I know I got to keep myself for now These days I try to fly, fly real high But I know that wings aren't easy to earn So I must yearn Must try for my wisdom from my stride From my stride From my stride I grab ?? too long I choose from right and wrong
