What's More

(What's More) is the chance to open a new door.

(What's More) is when it's time to settle an old score.

(What's More) is an unresolved argument between friends,

and the fear of isolation when the friendship ends.

(What's More) is the sadness from regret and mistakes

...and the time it takes to turn back, without hitting the brakes.

(What's More) is struggling to make ends meet,

(What's More) is trying harder and stayin' out on the street,

(What's More) is nothing feels better than doing a good deed,

…when you come across another who is more in need.

(What's More) is a fire of passion you cannot contain,

...it's spreading too fast, burning all the terrain.

(What's More) is the pride that keeps us from being real,

(What's More) is the greed takin' the world by its heels.

But (what's worse) is the ignorance and lack of utter care,

For the people around us and the lives that we share,

The resources we have and the paths we take,

The relationships between us and the prayers we make.

We can't live separately and do it all in vain,

We have to be the solution and not cause the pain.

We have to help each other and expect the exact same,

But I damn sure can't without all o' you, I'm sayin'…

(What's real) is a people that stands as one.

(What's real) is doing what needs to be done.

(What's real) is trusting and seeking the whole truth,

(What's real) is stayin’ true like ya’ got nothing to prove…

(What's Mine) is what I have in my life…

(What's Mine) are those with me through trouble and strife…

(What's Mine) is not an intention to sit here and preach,

But I know there is a lesson I can rightly teach...

(What's Mine) is yours….
