David Jones – If 2day Were 2morrow lyrics

If today were tomorrow,
how would you be?
Would you sit and chill and watch it pass or take part in society?
Be a fiend on the scene being mean to your queen.
Your daily regime; you think that you're Mean Joe. Pullin' stunts for the green.
Or would you attempt to be exempt from temptation.
My mental illustration equals motivation to energize a generation;
to surprise a nation.
To proceed, lead and succeed at your chosen vocation.
So in this here rhyme of mine from line to line let's take the time to sit back and unwind, clear your mind so you can find that space behind your face.
So sublime.
Wait till I get to the end before you hit rewind.
Now in a world created by you to do as you choose to do.
Would you choose to lose feeling used and abused, battered and bruised cravin' that endless snooze.
Cause the world owes you something for nothing it would appear.
Shedding tears in the ears of your peers about your fears and the hardships of past years.
The only doe you know are deers.
Man It's hard to hear with a blunt in your mouth while you're sipping on a beer.
When you look in the mirror at your face, what fills the space?
Is a mask with the task to cover and erase?
Or a star shining bright with the light for third eye sight?
To envision goals;
to shape and to mold,
educate a legend to be told?
Now let's look at it and see;
Die in the street or live like royalty;
wealth or poverty;
health or HIV
A-I-D-S Oh what a mess.
Will you pass the test
or end up like the rest.
A scattered mess.
The untouchable ones who thought they were the best.
Or are you blessed with the power to devour;
build a tower in an hour,
turn sweet from sour.
I'm tellin' you the time is now or;
Never say never when the time passes so does the weather;
to shine and shower on your every endeavour.
So in order to gain it most remain in your brain to refrain from being plain.
Train and sustain your plans to attain and keep your head up through the pain and the rain.
Do not assume that you're insane because your aim ain't the same
as the man spittin' game about the prize
and bulging pockets on his thighs.
Do you idolize?
Or are you wise to realize:
you've got one life as far as I know.
So do you row with the flow and go where it ends?
Or spend time to ascend to be great ladies and men.
Now close your eyes and open the third one to see.
If today where tomorrow;
How would you be?
