Rising from the dead and choosing light instead
But an image of darkness still rents space in my head
I need roses, maybe to lay in a rose bedBut the issue is perspective so give me some rose specks
A risen perspective, for fiery sword lessons
Approaching a guarded paradise hoping to be accepted
It′s my resting place, from the heavy burdens of yesterday
I wanna rid of imbalance, adjust the weights
And lighten the flesh experience, brighten for best appearance
With vision that's sharp and clear but refined to let the spirit reflect
I′m heavy spirited, needing my debt to clear and the death of my pride is near
And yes I'm a little fearful but still I'm letting go
Stepping into the flow, with the hopes of being lifted out of residual lows
And existing beyond the madness of knowledge that equals sadness
Into the light of day where the heart can be filled with gladness
No worry about the happiness being snatched away
Secure in knowing that heaven has got my back today
So I can focus all my strength on yet another goal
The only shade I wanna witness is the color rose
Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses
Let me slide em′ on
Ah, that feels better
With just the right shade to paint a perception of pleasure
And just the right prescription to rid cognitive dissonance
And still see the distance from where you are to where you wish to be
To make the vision clear and take away the mystery
To focus on the future make the haters history like
Seeing the brightness of the sun without it blinding you
Please block out the violence like ultra-violet refine my view
Take away the stigmas, astigmatisms
The things that misdirect my focus, distort my vision
A lense coated with bliss to coexist without division
Far-sighted correction for projection with precision
I′m foreseeing my victory, changing my frame of mind
Led by my convictions, no blind leading the blind
No wool over my eyes, I can see past the veil
Retrieving and transmuting my heaven out of the hell
Complexities vexed my soul now I'm solo, no contacts
No more specks in my eyes and now all I can see is facts
And its boosting my performance, even reforming my ways
Repainting all my shadows with these rose colored shades
Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses
Cover my ears, open my eyes
Give me the truth and leave out the lies
Show me a world where love is the way
Replace these dark shades and give me, give me rose
Cause life as I know has been faded
Sunlight shining in shady places
Out with the darkness, in with the joy
Life′s not for suffering its made to enjoy
Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses
Give me, give me rose colored, rose colored, rose colored glasses
Give me, give me, rose
Balance my reality when all I see is darkness
Rose colored glasses
Let my eyes see love cause most of what I hear is heart less
Rose colored glasses
Balance my reality when all I see is darkness
Rose colored glasses
Let my eyes see love cause most of what I hear is heartless
Rose colored glasses
Give me, give me rose
