It is what it is

There's no philosophy behind the hypocrisy
Demand the odyssey to get to the fallacy
Believing in things you can't obtain in reality
I want a physical feeling of peace in normality

A wave washes on the shore of my eternity
Or what I think of as eternity which is really just a temporary stay
Next to an ocean of day to days
And problems are the tide that comes in and out in waves.

Philosophize: they say is like the needle of truth
You've been raised by it so you should just know what to do
But there's no owners manual to this life that we drive
We consider ourself living as opposed to trying to stay alive
And we die-

I don't care who you are or what you've done
Life is temporary so you got to have your fun-
Right? Or is it wrong to believe in deeper meaning
Celebrating fasting of enjoyment and being demeaning-

To the other temporaries like you'll somehow be elite
If you suffer on your feet, make time to walk a beat
And live for other people because we all have responsibility
And tragedy and setbacks are character building indemnity.

It's all just bull s*** that you tell yourself to get by
While you live in a world of walls and protection refusing to take a chance and fly
Is it better to be the man, or accept that you're just a guy
Who's been living for a single goal and now goal-less don't know why-

You continue in this world of tragedy and ecstasy
Trying to feel both while the waves come over me
Am I really in control of my own destiny? are we?
Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow is, "we'll see"

A motion to dismiss? But I can't just let it go.
Even in solitude without you i'm alone
I've made up my mind and there's just one course I know
It's hope this island moves or off to heaven I will go.
