If you wanna

from My Street is Yours by Imagine & Amok

lyrics

If you wanna see my real face,
you gotta face me for real.
Leave love some space,
so I can have a place in what you feel.
If you want to reach my soul, just look into my eyes,
all I got is myself as disguise, I can't hide.

If you wanna feel my pain taste my tears,
eat my brain and take my fears.
If you wanna love me, heal my heart,
pull my smile up, breathe my art.
If you wanna hate me, hate me.
you only hate me if you loved me doesn't that sound crazy?

You can't replace me, I can't either,
yet we try.
With hope to meet again when life will die.
Time is so chill,
we wanna freeze the moment!
Hope is a lonely hill
where no one thinks of going.

So fleeting is the joy next to the eternal boredom.
It's our freedom they're ignoring.
It's so easy
and it's the reason they enjoy it.
Selling toy soldiers to baby boy,
baby boy to go to war!
No diamond pearl for baby girl give your body to the world,
go on and be whore!

Hug your tv set before I burn it,
you know the peace be dead and I'm concerned with,
reviving it so we can all start learning.
Standing still like the horizon
trying to not abide by these rules I despise,
won't let the fright cover my sky I'm here to fight!
I'm here to love, to kiss the night.
To seize each day in order to make things right.
I got some much rage against the system,
but way more passion for humanity.
While they destroy I will keep building
a path towards true sanity.

Real connections, not wifi,
communication, no I sign.
For the people, with the people, by the people!
That's the motto!
Let's be equal.
If you wanna understand me,
just listen to these words.
Every soul is an open book,
make sure you read first.
