Invented
© 2012 Andy Harrison
From the day you were born they put you in a box
Trained your mind to define under key and lock
Your identity formed from predefined scripts
So your future’s controlled and your wings are clipped
Chorus:
There are better choices than the ones presented
If you want a better life it’s got to be invented
You grew up being told you have freedom to choose
But that’s only so you doubt yourself more when you loose
You only can choose from the options you see
So what’s presented as a choice defines your reality
Chorus:
There are better choices than the ones presented
If you want a better life it’s got to be invented
When you map out your future from childhood on
You’re building space in your brain for your life to dance upon
Forces through people and people through systems
Try to limit your vision cut you off from your wisdom
Chorus:
There are better choices than the ones presented
If you want a better life it’s got to be invented
