Letra da Música: How We Portray - Dawn Desireé

I turn on the TV and lies are on the screen.
The crap they're feeding me can't be reality.
Can I change the world; can I show a better side?

I will take my only chance, and I will open up their eyes.
There's got to be another way other than keeping ourselves
how we portray.

I go on with my day, the very same old way.
I curse with every turn, these jerks, when will they learn?
Can't I get one damn smile; can't I find one friendly face?

I will take my only chance, and I will open up their eyes.
There's got to be another way other than keeping ourselves
how we portray.

There is a man on the corner, right by your side with a gun.
Do you stare in his eyes? Do you look the other way.
Do you push him, do you shove him, do you treat him just like me?
Will you regret your attitude when he points his gun at you?
Is this what it takes to make you change your ways?

I will take my only chance, and I will open up their eyes.
There's got to be another way other than keeping ourselves
how we portray.
