Open your eyes
It's right in front of your face, it's plain in disguise
Still caught by surprise
And all you need to be great is to break from the world
But still somehow can't even sever the ties
Man, open your eyes
Just look at what we've done to ourselves
So caught up in greed, never content with wellness and health
And we were human until we ranked by race, political science will keep us divided, and classified by wealth
Open your eyes
Are we really doing all we can?
We listen just to reply, not listen to understand
One man had a goal to make the world a better place
Next thing you know we got bombed from Japan
Man, open your eyes
Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank
Give a man a bank and he can rob the world
But our perception of happiness can be different
Many people are poor cause all they got is their riches
Open your eyes

Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Are you seeing what I'm seeing right now?

Open your eyes
So what's the real question?
Do people really die from suicide or the depression?
Do we stand divided as a nation?
Or what if the cure for cancer is in the brain of someone who can't even afford a good education?
Real love is more than we can handle
If we're a perfect match, why did we burn out like a candle?
And if you're poor and caught with drugs, they label it a crime
Do the same thing if you're rich, they classify it as a scandal
(I'm going to rehab)
Many parents will do anything for their kids
Except let them be who they are, tryna fit them into a grid
Cause a quiz don't study skills, just obedience to take a test
If the whole world was blind, would your people still be impressed?
When you focus on problems, you'll just have more problems
When you sort out your options, you learn how to solve them
And you gotta be hurt to grow, you lose you gain
Sometimes lessons are better learned through pain
Open your eyes

Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Are you seeing what I'm seeing right now?

Open your eyes
It's right in front of your face, it's plain in disguise
Still caught by surprise
And all you need to be great is to break from the world
You exist but do you feel alive?
The biggest steps we ever take in our lives come from taking smaller steps in the right direction, never stop progressing
Lessen social media time
Gotta unplug to try to find a better connection
There is only one rule that you should follow
When coming up on success, don't reveal everything you know
It's so typical to love on the beautiful but even more beautiful to love on the typical
Remember, you are a work of art, no one will get you
But for the ones that do, they won't forget you
Everything in life is your decision
If you wanna be great, don't ask permission
Are your eyes still closed?

What you gain always comes with a greater cost
And who you lose is not always counted a loss
The greatest battle we face is head versus heart
If their true colors show, don't go try repainting the art
I see humans but still no humanity
The way that we think makes me question my sanity
Cause we kill people who kill cause killing people is wrong
Now I said too much, they'll have me dead by the end of this song
Open your ...
