[Female-driven chorus]
It'd be a very different world
If you could look at me,
And see through my eyes.
Could you see what I see?
Could you see what I see?
It'd be a very different life,
If you'd see me for real.
You'd never think twice
If you could feel what I feel.
[Verse 1]
Okay. Here we go.
I close my eyes and I compromise.
I make the same mistakes this time and that time, right?
It's like I'm living in a world full of dark and light colors.
Never any in-betweens never any love for one another.
And as if it weren't enough to watch the world come to its knees,
I'm finding myself getting thrown aside, asking "Anybody? Please?"
And why am I supposed to sit on the ground like I don't matter?
And why is talking about it make me crazy like the mad hatter?
Who are you to tell me where I cannot and cannot stand?
Who am I to wonder if I belong on my own lands?
So here I go thinking and drinking and thinking again,
Wondering if my voice can be heard among even friends.
[Chorus]
It'd be a very different world
If you could look at me,
And see through my eyes.
Could you see what I see?
Could you see what I see?
It'd be a very different life,
If you'd see me for real.
You'd never think twice
If you could feel what I feel.
[Verse 2]
And if I'm supposed to sit in silence,
Enduring every stranger's violence,
How am I supposed to make a name that isn't frightening?
How can I use these words to make my life somewhat enlightening?
I'm not trying to scare you I just can't figure out the pain.
How am I supposed to know what it is if I can't gain
the knowledge or the reality behind each blow I land?
How am I supposed to feel when I'm getting out of hand?
And what do you expect from me when the world's on hands and knees,
While I'm on the ground and screaming out "is there anybody? Please?"
[Chorus]
It'd be a very different world
If you could look at me,
And see through my eyes.
Could you see what I see?
Could you see what I see?
It'd be a very different life,
If you'd see me for real.
You'd never think twice
If you could feel what I feel.
[Bridge]
So the next time that you find yourself judging based on sight,
Remember that the brightest hearts only shine in darkest night.
The next time you hear silence take a second to remember,
That only when you try is it ever gonna get any better.
The next time that you grab my hand please try to remind me,
That everything I see I don't have to put behind me.
Remind me that I'm not a shield, remind me that I'm human.
Remind me that I matter, too, doesn't matter what I'm doin'.
[Chorus]
It'd be a very different world
If you could look at me,
And see through my eyes.
Could you see what I see?
Could you see what I see?
It'd be a very different life,
If you'd see me for real.
You'd never think twice
If you could feel what I feel.
This is why I shouldn't write rap songs. But oh well, it's worth it. It's one of my characters' songs they wrote about their own... experiences.
