Dog what's your main focus
I think life's got you in hypnosis and I hope this
get's through to you and you take it to heart
because for any change to occur there must be a start
For anything worth doing, is gonna be hard
but you must push through and let nothing retard
your progress, the days will look up and the clouds will break
sunshine will gleam through, it just might take
a little time, a little work, a little devotion
influences from all directions will tug at your emotion
you gotta rise above, all that stands in your way
don't let nothing deter you from that path lay
ahead, life is just more than the moment
you gotta live for the eternal, and realise there's atonement
what you do today, don't stay in the here and now
but will return to you someday, someway, somehow

{Chorus - Soul}
Life has it's ways of making things right
What's right for life might not be alright
for you, you know, what you show, will go
forth from you and be reflected tomorrow
{Chorus - Timid}
{Chorus - Soul}

[Timid]
Yo I know these days and times look bleek
but you must stand strong, and don't let it prove you weak
strength not from anger but manifested within
the calm and serentity that lies in all men
this power is everlasting and will keep you on your feet
strength through madness leads to deep deceit and defeat
betrayal, animosity, revenge, and hatred, all may
surface when you rub someone the wrong way
and vengence will be their's if you're lost in anger
mostly likely it'll be someone you know over a stranger
if you live on the terms of dark, dark gets done
runs rampant in your life, and will block out the sun
so move out of the shadows and just catch a glimpse of the light
and let it strike the prism within, so you too may radiate bright

{Chorus - Soul}
Life has it's ways of making things right
What's right for life might not be alright
for you, you know, what you show, will go
forth from you and be reflected tomorrow
{Chorus - Timid}
{Chorus - Soul}

My man, are you hearing me or am I talking to air
sometimes i feel that when I speak you're not there
do NOT let circumstances catch you off guard
you've been warned, when life strikes, it strikes hard
and at that moment, you have no choice
so take heed at the words don't just hear my voice
i'm trying to save you from the misery to come
that surely will be there, it's not known where from
so take a hint at what I'm delivering from within these lines
understand that lifes got its' own plan and own designs
so don't just say the words but listen to what's in these rhymes
for it might save you someday in these desperate times

{Chorus - Soul}
Life has it's ways of making things right
What's right for life might not be alright
for you, you know, what you show, will go
forth from you and be reflected tomorrow
{Chorus - Timid}
{Chorus - Soul}
