Take the time to realize Take the time and you will rise To a point beyond this madness That fills your life with all this sadness Find a reason to be here Look around you're very near Take the time, smile, forget Things in the past that brought regret Take the time to realize Take the time and you will rise To a point beyond this madness That fills your life with all this sadness You'll find that nothing is a drag You'll wake up to a whole new bag And though you'll find its very new You'll find that all you had to do Take the time, be yourself Take the time, be yourself Take the time, be yourself
