Substance - Betrayed

Caught in the race to get ahead

Our lives fall out of balance

And the choices made to find success

Well they start to get the best of us

The more we get the more we crave

And Nothing satisfies

So its time we quit this race

And look beyond

We search for substance

A fight to bring some meaning

To have our lives be more

Then a grain of sand lost on the beach

That’s washed away by times embrace

A fight to bring some meaning

To have our lives be more

To have our actions bring a crucial chance

That shakes the world

And the more we own, the less we have

Because the things we buy just weigh us down

And distract us from the urgency

Of the deeper quest

We want our lives to stand for something

So we search for, we search for substance

We search for substance in our lives
